Have enjoyed having a quick read of everyone's profiles, is going to be great following the final 5 regardless of the outcome. Can't quite believe how intense the buterflies are already!
I guess if it doesnt go through, it will allow me to do it again later, fingers crossed. Thankyou Katie, I will set up my thread this evening. Im all excited and nervous again!
Wow, now the voting pages are up I feel I'm on a whole new level of nervous excitement, having a really strong coffee before trying to compose my forum page has not helped at all! Neither has the fact that I met 2 of the other first timers and they seemed like really great people! Although to be fair so did everybody else I met on the day, this is going to be a challenging week!
Aaron - didn't know you and Mel had made it through as well! Congratulations!
Good luck with the vote, and great to meet you on Friday
Don't worry, votes are working and being counted so it's fine to start campaigning.
There's a tiny glitch in that a message should appear if you try to vote multiple times to say you've already voted. The mechanism is working fine and is only allowing one vote per category, but the message isn't appearing.
In short, nothing for you to worry about, but something we're looking into.
The first two vote for me campaigns are up..and both are hard to read as there is no paragraphs............and one is very long........even i couldn't be bothered to read it as it was just one long line of words.....
please remember to put the paragraphs in or it is just too much hassle for those reading.......
I'll take any currency and any amount. If someone could send me a pair of the new Asics GT2000 (I assume you got the latest gear from boot camp?), that would help. Otherwise, I'll vote the same as usual.... based on attractiveness
Time for a run. I'll check out the contestants later.
Shameless behaviour from those in the GFA category - socks for votes!!! Scandalous - I'm off to talk to my mate at the Mail
RRR - The sad thing is that liked you all. I was hoping that wouldn't be the case. Still, at least it means one of us is going to Paris, and I'll be delighted for whoever it is. Good luck
I understand the skint because of Xmas RRR, but I've told my kids they'll have to go without this year - I've got a competition to buy, sorry WIN!

PLEASE NOTE

Putting which category in the title or subtitle of the thread would be good too Make it as idiot-proof as possible for the people reading!
So getting into trouble for keep checking the forum while I'm supposed to be working...
seeing the voting pages has just made it all so real!!!!
Good luck to every one!!!....amazing to have met you on Friday!!!.....x
I really need to do my page but have a compliance meeting today (which I hate) and out tonight in London.
Oh well - I'm sure I will find the time somehow!
12/12
Thanks Seren nos - as always!!! I don't know what we would do without you!!
Probably open my eyes and read it myself
After meeting some of you on Friday and then reading the blurb it is really tough to decide on who to vote for! Good luck guys.
It kind of makes me glad that I didn't get through as my nerves would be shot by next Wednesday.
Hi DS2
Voting closes at midnight next Wednesday 12th.
Thanks
Katie
Every section says "First time runners"........cant help being a printer!!!
Stan, you said it - my first handful of nails are gone already!
Ooooh eeeek.... so hard to choose, especially the "Good for Age" group. All amazing motivational stories. Good luck "PB Hunters" xox
Argh! DS2 can't believe we're in the same category! (Knew I should have pushed him in the hedge when I met him on Friday) ... grumble, mutter...
RRR - I know, I couldn't believe it. Good luck anyhow!
CaroT - don't forget the local connection. Lol I think it's hard in any category to be honest.
Malcs - only your finger nails? I've chewed my fingers off - it's taking me ages to type with my toes!
Jeez, about five pages since I last looked. I'm not voting for any of you posting on here 'cos you never shut up
Ha
What's the latest pricing on the Tenjiso vote?
Malcs & Tenjiso - Weren't we down to Euros and a pair of trainers
CaroT - Don't make me buy your vote! Remember the pink socks! You won't get any for xmas if you don't vote for me (or is that an incentive not to?)
DS2 - We're in a fab category though - lots of great runners!!
My votes are purchaseable
I'll take any currency and any amount. If someone could send me a pair of the new Asics GT2000 (I assume you got the latest gear from boot camp?), that would help. Otherwise, I'll vote the same as usual.... based on attractiveness

MCS, Tenjiso, SB - Due to last minute Xmas shopping, am now skint! However, will happily send you PICTURES of my goody bag from bootcamp
LOL - Saw a yard of jaffa cakes in the shop yesterday - how I chuckled to myself! Just wear the pink socks as promised and I'll be a smiley bear!

Whoever gets through will have the backing of us all I'm sure
