Cinders, that's all I can think off too......I need someone to be me and collect my number.

We don't land until 10 minutes after close of registration.

[Deleted User] · May 2004

Steady, I was in exactly the same position. I e-mailed the organisers to see if an alternative method of collection could be arranged, but got no reply.

In the end I decided to pay £15 and change to an earlier flight.

Cinders kindly offered to try and collect my number when I had a problem. If you are stuck let me know and I'll pick up your number.

Cinders · May 2004

I will gladly try and collect whoever's numbers need collecting and pass on. Me and other half flying out on Fri for long weekend so will be there over registration.

Just let me know if I'm needed :-)

boing!

Hi Y'all

[Deleted User] · May 2004

TB, I was on the earlier flight, they have re-scheduled it very unhelpfully. Thanks Cinders I will need your services I think.

[Deleted User] · May 2004

Yes, PB2 we can moan about bmibaby together.

[Deleted User] · May 2004

Agnes, it will be my first marathon and my sister. We are flying out from Cardiff on the Friday with Air Wales. Have you booked flights, accommodation etc yet?

[Deleted User] · May 2004

Miss P, the social list is short. What sort of social does it entail over in Dublin?

[Deleted User] · May 2004

I think it is a reading club

running caz · May 2004

Have just been looking at ferry and flight prices. Can someone confirm the date of the marathon? Is it Sun 24th? I had the 26th in my head but that's a Tuesday? I'm confused!!

[Deleted User] · May 2004

Monday 25th - Irish Bank Holiday.

running caz · May 2004

Thanks for clearing that one up Toucan!!

running caz · May 2004

Oh god, just thought of another question that affects my booking - what time does it start? and where is the start? Pheonix Park?

SHADES · May 2004

Start is Nassau Street, usually 9 am

[Deleted User] · May 2004

OK I've been following this thread for a while, and have been inspired to sign up for Dublin as my first marathon. It looks like there are a few others in the same boat. I'm flying from City airport on Saturday - anyone else (there's only one flight on sat I think)?

[Deleted User] · May 2004

I have just had a reply from the Dublin organisers about my altered flight time and collecting my number.

They are fine about someone collecting it for me. So Cinders I will take you up on your kind offer if that is OK.

[Deleted User] · May 2004

If you mean Brum at 7am Juicer, then yes we are on that flight

Cinders · May 2004

No problems Steady, can organise a little nearer.

[Deleted User] · May 2004

hey nellie64

I fly from cardiff on the friday with Air wales too. I have booked accomodation and feel pretty good that all is arranged. Only problem is my training has gone to pot due to some sort of pulled or twisted muscle (according to the local quack)in my lower back.

I'm also meant to be doing the cardiff 8k soon but as i havn't ran for almost two weeks I'm gettin kinda worried. Might see you at the airport in October. Look out for the scottish accents.

[Deleted User] · May 2004

Have booked my flights form Bournemouth for Saturday to return Tuesday .
Does anybody recommend a good spot to stay. I have seen details of several places around the temple bar/o'connel st, quay area. Looks close to the start in Nasseau? St . But where abouts is the registration compared to the city centre please

thanks

Brian

[Deleted User] · May 2004

The registration is some way away from the City Centre, about a 30 minute walk I would say.

[Deleted User] · May 2004

30 minute walk will be a good warm up the day before the marathon...however...I can't be bothered by going to registration. Having a friend pick up my race #, so as not to interfere with doing my touristy bit...

[Deleted User] · May 2004

Try an open top bus, really good they are, very touristy.

[Deleted User] · May 2004

Guinness Museum is a must. Saturday not sunday though.
