It's a while away, but if any of you are NOT running FLM next year but want to join in, come and help us support our fab runners. We meet at mile 18 and dispense hugs, sweeties, bananas, tea, jaffa cakes and in some cases, gin, to our deserving runners. Post here if you'd like to join the support crew.

'ARF!
Gin!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
btw Barnsley's tonic water was Tesco's finest last year (the only one I could find without artificial sweeteners in)
Meerkat - a suggestion for the supporters this time. Many peeps do not know by sight who they are looking out for, or where theirt support team will be (remember Spans shouting 'where's my drink?'). How's about giving the support teams a number, so that runners know to go to group 1 or 7 or whichever theirs is? Could put laminated numbers on the railings as well.
ooh I'm sooo looking forward to seeing it from the other side of the fence next year!
If I don't get a place I plan to come along and support again, it was wet, cold and good fun this year.
Will RW be kind enough to donate a banner and some balloons again?

Here's what I plan to do, but all other ideas are very very welcome:
- when we've got a good list of supporters, I'll ask runners to start posting their needs at mile 18. Gin already sorted, Benz!
- I'll then start to allocate runners to supporters. Peeps can say who they'd like to support.
- I'll link up supporters with their runners
- like last year, I'll have a support page on my website with details of who's supporting who
- I hope that RickK will be our official photographer again (if he's not running)
- will see if kk will do a banner again
If you want to see last year's support crew, and pics, go to this page
I'll be almost definitely running ('almost' because I haven't been out for five weeks because of an ankle strain). And this year I promise to stop to say hello and for some refreshment (undecided between Talisker, Guinness or defibrillator at the mo!).
Expo is an excellent idea.

The URWFRC website will be there to do our normal meeting up at the start, and also to give the supporters estimated time of when people will be at mile 18.
Hope to chat soon so that we can work out what all we need.
