Believe me 7 hours 12 minutes is not a bad time on that course

 

Camlo

Good! Was worried that you could all skip around and would be totally frustrated by my tortoise impression.

that just might get me out of the pool

Iron Mixed Grill

Premier Inn booked for me and Durham Biker!

Aparently it's 65% booked already for that weekend, probably more now since I booked our room.

Can I be number 44 please?

Thanks!

how long is the bike loop again Q... 

The Silent Assassin

the bike loop is 4.5 miles, I can set a run route round the bike course that includes a bit of off road for all you doing the 100 miles lakes run

seren nos

Thanks Q i was thinking of looking at an OS maop to see if there is some offroad or hills around  

Ironplodon

Gutted I can't make this, was really looking forward to it, instead I'll have to do a half on my own, during the course of a day, not quite the same...

Stanners from the Bridge

Looking like good numbers Q, even with the inevitable injuries / drop outs. Can't wait

Mallowpuff

I'll put myself down for number 113

Stanners from the Bridge

Gutted - I have to drop out folks. Long story that is v boring but the result is I have my girls that weekend as the wife will be away in Paris. I'll pop along and cheer at you in the pool first thing on one of the days. 2nd year running I've had to jib out...not good!

Lee the Pea

Poor show Stanners!!!  I reckon this is just a ruse, and actually you're scared you'll get your ass kicked, so you're bailing

That said, i'm not competing anymore, but i'll be there both days to marshall/shout  abuse/eat chip butties

Stanners from the Bridge

Rumbled! See you there for an early morning chip bap!

seren nos

how old are the girlsnow  stanners........if you want to compete on the sunday...would they be happy to watch with a mad welsh woman  

Hofmeister Bear

I'm ordering a Chip butty for T1 and T2.

The Silent Assassin

There will be enough people to look after your kids Stanners

Lee the Pea

Defo.  We promise not to teach them anything inappropriate 

Batty H

Hi SA, please can I have number 172 (sticking with my IM Wales number, although I have finally taken them off my helmet after being told I looked ridiculous!!!!).  Are you able to recommend any local campsites?  Still working on Pingu!

The Silent Assassin

Batty H

seren nos

Batty H

Camlo
