See you all there on Sunday. I'm off to a work do all day and all night tomorrow, driving straight to the race, so won't be back online before then. I'm hoping to find you by recognosing the ones I know (so no one come in disguise, please!).
Meet by the Nike Van
********************
I just did a teeny little 3-mile shuffle and my legs are like lead. So I can't imagine that they're going to work terribly well tomorrow.
OK? Any takers? A mere 132lb stripling, I am. I shan't wriggle. perhaps a modified back-pack?? Anybody?
Off road shoes best, road shoes second best.
Just a quick note to say goodluck.
Directions to the pub after the race:
Turn left out of the GRIM entrance, follow road for about a mile taking the first left turning (I think it's sign posted Church Crookham) follow this road and the Forresters is on your right!!
See you all tomorrow :-)
Imelda's pickin me up in the morning, and we hope to be there by 9.15ish by the Nike van.
see ya!!
well done if you finished !!
I didnt struggle as much last year as today!
Did enyone else think it was so much harder?
what happened with first place, a marshall sent the leaders the wrong way!
that was FUN!!
I just threw everything in the washing machine and my knickers were FULL of sand!!
¦oD
An' I have a wounded knee.

((((supporters and Ventolin holders))))

(No idea why you stopped to fill your knicks with sand, but hey -ho - it takes all sorts I spose)
Anyone lost a deep sea diver! I found one in me britches!
Cougie, she got bored running coz she found it too easy so she stopped and started building sandcastles!
ahemmmmmmmmm.........
I think lickle leps should be carried around on your shoulders, Cougie coz she did brillo today!
And I thought you were just glad to see me, JJ?
Ooooooooooooops, I didn't say that..........
Honest
<blush>
The muddy water has gone to my head!
A huge special thanks to Imelda, Fraggle and Jon for the support. And a tremendously big thank you to Fraggle for the mince pies afterwards. What an immensely civilised end to a totally uncivilised race!
I thought it was longer than last year. There was an extra little loop at the end that we missed last time, wasn't there? My time was 4 min slower than last year and last year I am very sure it couldn't have been 8 miles, more like a rather short 7 I thought.
Great race! I suspect I'll be back again next time.
