Levi · June 2005

Hi Hadyn,

Thanks for the 3.40 time, but I was 3 mins slower. Can't workout the list or I would have put it on, still blaming my old computer. Are you doing any more marathons this year?

ip(FeS2) · June 2005

Levi.-
Just copy the entire list post into the message box, then edit the bit you want to change.

Thanks lp,

I'll overcome my 'technophobia' one way or another!

Hi Levi,
I will be running the Anglesey and Snowdonia marathons.

Levi · June 2005

May do those next year.

Snowdonia is tough, not many PB's to be had there. Strangely appealing though.

Lord Didsbury · June 2005

Haydn, have you done Anglesey before? I did 18 miles of it last year. Would recommend it, but not the place to get injured....you have to rely on passing cyclists and borrow their mobile phones to call for help!

Lord Didsbury · June 2005

Abingdon gets great reviews. Why is that?

Tail-chafer · June 2005

its not all about PBs blah blah blah

[Deleted User] · June 2005

Snowdonia-nothing strange about the appeal-one of my favourite marathons but I'm not planning on doing it this year. I've got it down as possibly my 100th next year BTW.

[Deleted User] · June 2005

Abingdon is reasonably flat and is also small and friendly, that's probably the reason for good reviews.

[Deleted User] · June 2005

Very dissapointing debut for me, lack of water finished me off at 12 miles but booked for Abingdon this morning, hopefully will do better when it isnt so hot & dry.

LD

I have not done Anglesey before.

UH

100 next year!!! (marathons that is). I have fallen behind somewhat, only 2 in the last 12 months.

micknphil-marathonlads.com · June 2005

We clocked 4.45 at Abingdon last year

Shall have the summer holiday's to think about it

Might try Robin hood full again, clocked 4.27 there in 2002

We will do a few half's and i'll get my head around it

One thing for sure,

Phillip ain't going to get no lighter, and i ain't going to get any younger

Hope all of you enjoy the future

Bee good

Supergirl Pam · June 2005

WhichWayNow,

Have you done ultras before or will the 50 miler be the first? If you race it then I would suggest you might not recover for Boddington. It depends on your recovery rate. Quite a few people run London to Brighton then do 24 hour race the following weekend.
Can't realy give any more advice, sorry.
I have run a 35 miler and 3 Marathons in four weekends when training for London to Brighton and it was good preparation. We are all different. Nutters? well maybe!!!!

micknphil-marathonlads.com · June 2005

Hi Pam

How's things

Lord Didsbury · June 2005

Bit of advice needed folks...which of the following in september/early oct are flat enough to be real best PB material:

Wolverhampton
Robin Hood
Leicester?

[Deleted User] · June 2005

dunno about Wolverhampton & Leicester

started Robin Hood last year and pulled at 15
miles. The first half has some hills - but
I do not remember them as being that significant.

The second half is flat and straight. . .

I am going back to finish it this year
(I was getting over a sniffly snuffly virus
last year) and new your thereafter . . .

micknphil-marathonlads.com · June 2005

Lord didsbury

Now you've asked something.

have'nt you ah

Flat enough for pb ah

Rule out Leicester then for a start

Takes us 2.05 for the half

and around 4.50 for the full

I don't think ther's much between robin hood and Wolverhampton

But then you could do both

Wolves half and full most 2000 entrants

Robin hood 9--10 000 entrants

I don't know its 50//50 that

Phil and i have done in two weeks
Wolves full in 4.27

Then Robin Hood full in 4.27

We did Wolves half in 1.53

Then Robin hood half in 1.54

Your guess is as good as mine
