it is Mr J's maiden 10K it is a lovely place to run and totally traffic free. Do get some hill training in so it won't be a big shock.
I ran past the start area today and did a bit of a recce. the area on the race site map where all the baggage tents etc are is huge!!! so I'm sure there will be a corner for us forumites.
I like the idea of a forum cup - it will need a strong team to compensate for my time if we're going to reach 200 mins though! I also like the idea of the picnic.
This could be a cracking run if we all go for it - it is expensive, but it would be a nice (if small) way for us to honour a man who gave us the London Marathon. I'm sure all FLM vets will agree.
Oooh count me in please! Didn't realise there was a forum for this race too. Am doing the RNLI 10k on Sunday which I am partly looking forward/terrified about as it's going to be my first 10k!
Have paid my fee, was £17! But got in before the price got raised to £22 I think, bit pricey but hey - what a gorgeous setting!
It'll be me, my boyf and our 8 year old son, will bring loads of nibbles (post race recovery food), sounds like fun!
Count me in, I'll bring something for the picnic too.

Can someone let us newbie/plodder types know how we'll be able to find you all?
Someone said something about a banner? What colour, what does it say on it?
Also, does anyone know if there's kit storage at the event or if we have to drag along a 'supporter' or hijack some else's? (not planning on driving so will need to have a bag with me)
Nessy if you go to www.richk.co.uk then you'll see loads of forumite piccies. The FLM ones show off our banners (I think) and loads of them have us wearing our forum vests on too.
Oh yes, and er, I'll be fairly easy to spot in a crowd!!

I'll try and get my mits on the URWFRC banner as well so we are easily identified.
BTW bit funny logging on this morning and finding my post on the home page.

URWFRC Picnic is a GO!!!!!!!!!!
Excellent stuff JJ - can I put in a request for some veggie sausage rolls please? :-)
Like the idea of the Forum Cup though
How will this picnic work? Do we contribute to a food fund, bring our own, bake and share or what?
That way everyone gets something to eat and hopefully a bit extra :-)
I will have a gazebo where people can leave their food in the shade.

oops - forgot to add my name to the list
Lots of hills where I live, so I won't say no problem, just no surprises.
Definitely looking forward to it - a bit scared though. Sounds like there will be oodles of people.
Off for a quick (pretty slow actually) 4 miles this lunchtime.
