Hmmm, if vodka tears freeze then we know we are in trouble! Thinking of plodding around, chatting and having a laugh if there is a group of us. Don't really care too much about time.
Tara - are you at the social on Friday? Will you be any soberer than last time? Might discuss there!
Me neither, just completing will be good enough for me, really just using this as a tough guy warmup thing and a good excuse to get all muddy!
lol DTs I will be much soberererer on Friday, last social was totally wasted as I'd started drinking at midday as was at leaving do prior to Doggetts, vowed not to get that drunk again (we'll see how long that lasts!)
I think there are a few of us aiming to run together, Poca, Jeckmac, myself, Gungho, mark*w, most are at the social so if we remain sober we can talk about it there.
Yama-man, This is my first time doing this race but I shall be wearing my new winter tights or 3/4 length ones, I think the worst they can get is muddy and this will come off in the wash....just remember to bring another set of warm clothes to change into after!!!
Well it sounds like everyone knows each other already, how am I going to be able to know who's who, are you meeting up before the race in a certain spot??
This social that is mentioned....is anyone allowed to go??
Tamsy Yes it is the URWFRC monthly booze up, no formalities, all invited, I went to my first one last month, got very very drunk, be warned there are bad people there! It is in London this Friday evening, full details on the URWFRC social thread on forum
Cool,I will have to pop over to that thread and check it out as I would love to meet up with people that I chat to on here!! (I can't make this month and proberly not Dec due to finances but maybe I could January!!)
Ah that's good Fraggle as I would like to meet up before the race so I know who to look out for in the pub after!!
I took a wander across the ground today. There is not as much water about as last time and the surface is reasonably dry underfoot so unless there is a downpour in the next week we probably won't be needing our water wings.
Spans - I would offer you a lift but we've got my company Christmas do the evening before so will be coming in from Banbury area. Still, DTs isn't THAT bad company ;-) Are you running or watching? I have an idea you did say but I can't go back far enough to check.
I know of a spare entry, Gungho cannot now run and has asked me if i can find anyone who wants his place If anyone wants it then email me and i will put them in touch with gungho to sort out details
I just took out a pair of socks to wear on my morning run, turned them inside out (I'm funny like that) and found the remnants of the Sodbury Slog in them.
Can anyone please tell me why I decided to do both these monsters?

I might try the Vodka and Red Bull approach as suggested to me on the HM thread!
At least if it hurts i wont feel it!
I do approve of your methods though!

and for some strange reason, lots of people managed to spot me in the crowd!

Still be nice to put faces against name...in fact I have only just realised that you can show forum faces!!!
I will need to get a photo and up load myself!!
Even 1 would be a start.
No decent excuse as to why I havn't got some, just poor personal admin.
Can collect if local all week or, send to brum.
If anyone wants it then email me and i will put them in touch with gungho to sort out details

ratcatcher... am planning on running this but not racing... all part of the build up mileage whilst having fun(?!) campaign!
The answer to your question Jj is:
You is bonkers, you is!
Hope all are well for the forthcoming "event". How is the ankle holding up after two races in a row Spans?
