I've set a target of 1:32, but it's a bit vague depending on what the hills turn out like. I want to go sub-1:30 sometime, but that probably won't happen here. We shall see. Susie's nominal target is in the 1:40 area, but she hasn't run since the start of December (injuries, holidays and minor illnesses in the way), so she's going to have to get putting the work in sometime soon!
You going to get the missus to join us for dinner then? It's going to have to be more of a civilised affair than Brighton (not drinking that much before a race again!)
Venom, I'm looking to beat 1h38.20 at Marlow which was very hilly but I've no chance of staying with you. Spans has forecast 1H35 which is more of a dooable time. Perhaps we can all start together though
Have booked a table for 10 at 8.30 (Mr Fraggle is keen on joining us if we can get ababysitter) at Ninos Quattro in Caversham. Will cinfirm the exact numbers with them nearer the time This OK with everyone?!!
Has anyone of you has received their race number so far? Or has any of your credit cards been debited (for entrance via royal mail)? And how much was the entry fee?
I am starting to get worried, that my letter has been lost.
Juast joined this thread. We r 2 ladies coming down from wakefield in yorkshire to do reading for 1st time. we r staying at holiday inn(if we can get in!) & wud luv to meet you all at Ninos on Sat night - so please book us in too! Any directions to this place wud be gud
Hoping to do sub 2hrs and my mate Gill wants to do 2.20
Right, there's a lot of you doing this and I'm not one to want to miss out on the action. Is there any room left for little ol' me? Or is the race full?
Only I was going to do Salisbury the week before, but this one won't interfere with my birthday celebrations.

JJ you're a star and I was thinking, orginally 2 hours, but then I did a performance predictor on onrunning.com and it said 1:49 something, but I thought no fear, so 1:55 is an excellent target for me, thanks. If but scary!
Hi EP, well you know me, I like to run when all my friends are having a jaunt. Brighton was excellent fun and this sounds like another Brighton, only a much longer run!
I think the hotel and the carbo loading night before is a definite possibility! Any recommendations re: hotel gratefully received.
