Hello all, I would like to enter but have left it too late so just wondering if anyone had a spare entry..Sam
Hi Sam,
I have an entry as I am no longer going to do it. Message me on here
Hi Robejo, I just tried to email you but it came back as delivery notification failure.
I am interested
Regards
Sam
Jay - my training still going well, nice 9 miler at lunchtime today in the sun, with some sprint intervals thrown in.
Still stuck at work now making up the time for the long lunch, but you can't have everything!
How's your running coming along, do you feel like you're on track for any target time you may have set yourself?
7 miles this morning, did my furthest one yet on Sunday, almost 22 miles... Got 20 miles this Sunday.
I'm aiming for a sub 3:45
Haven't run since weds morning, I know I need to rest but that's the LAST thing I want to be doing right now!
Going swimming for an hour at 9pm instead of tonight's 10 miler
Nobody understands the frustration
Hi everyone,
I've missed the entry as I didn't want to sign up until I'd seen the docs about my knee
If anyone has a spare entry they're looking to transfer please contact me at clancy.h@hotmail.co.uk
Thanks!

I know user SSING had an entry going, might be worth asking.
good luck
sam
Jay, I understand your frustration completely. I've had ITBS myself. At one stage it was so bad I couldn't even walk, although that's my own fault for trying to run through the pain.
I had some physio and sports massages when it was at it's worst. The thing is, if you are prone to ITBS, I think you naturally have tight IT bands. The one thing my physio showed me that really works at keeping the symptoms away is a stretch simiar to number 3 in the link below. The only difference is that I bend the straight leg up towards the opposite buttock.

Hope you get it sorted soon and good luck with the training.
Hello,
Travelling from the US and will be in Stratford during the race. Unfortunately missed the deadline. If anyone is looking to transfer a half marathon entry, I would be interested.
Thank you,
Paul
Thanks
Thanks a lot for the link buddy I'll definitely give those stretches a go.
Think I'm going to have a full week off and keep up the swimming to try and keep fit
Thanks

Hope you're all too sensible to do what I did at the last two lap marathon I ran. Half marathoners running past me, pace judgement went out the window. Felt like a million dollars at mile 13, by mile 16 the wheels had well and truly come off. Made it to the finish but I was a tottering wreck and couldn't even walk properly for about a week afterwards.
Learnt my lesson though and have really enjoyed the ones I've run since then.
It depends how today's long run goes
But I've just done a 20 miler relatively comfortably, without to much knee pain. It's my IT band.
Got to keep my fingers crossed and train smart, training 5 nights a week has gone out the window, I'm just focused on finishing now, sod the time, it's my first marathon so crossing that line is an achievement in itself eh
After comfortably completing Ashby20 a few weeks back I have been felled by a seemingly routine training run. I can't bend my knee and thus can't run this race. If anyone wants my place or knows of someone who wants it then please drop me a line and we can sort out a transfer. Good luck to all you jogging bards!

Hello fellow runners!
I really wanted to participate in the Rotary Shakespeare Marathon but I was too late to sign up. Is anyone unable to participate and looking for a transferree? I would love to take your place if possible.
Thank you!

Sorry to hear you can no longer use your place. Do you still have the place available to transfer at all please? We would be very grateful for it if you do.
Thanks

After being hit with a horrendous bug in the middle of March, I was too scared to sign up for this (what would have been my very first half marathon!).
To say I'm gutted is an understatement!
After recovering well though.... and completing my first 10 miles this saturday gone, I would be over the moon if anybody has (or knows of) a place that won't be used?
I'd also be more than happy to refund you the entry fee through paypal?
Thanks
Faye
Hey, if any one has a spare place for the marathion, please could you e mail me, mary_pole@hotmail.co.uk
thanks marie
I will obviously return the favour and cover the entry fee!
If anyone cannot use his entry for the Marathon for whatever decision and wishes not to go for waste I would like to buy his place please. I can even throw afree an hour sport massage if you are in London
Thanks
Charlie
