I did it also last year - flat all the way round - two laps of the city finishing with a lap of the Millenium Stadium (bit more grand than the one at Le T) - great oppo for a very fast time, but just remember where you park - it took us two hours to find the car afterwards last year, as all the signs were in a foreign language!
Oh, and they charge you a fiver to enter the country as well! Bloomin cheek!
Friends of mine are doing the full. Next one will be in the spring.
Luckily I've got a hotel nearby, so can leave the car there.
Really looking forward to finishing in the stadium. Recon I can get them to play Chariots of Fire...?
Le T was good, been training in my top as well.
How was Berlin and congrats on PB
Coop's now that I re read your post 2:07 and we all thought that you were aiming for a sub 2 , hope the ethiopian/kenyan implants via Botox are doing there magic
All the best for those doing Cardiff this weekend , by the way did you see that the first prize money for Chicago this weekend is $650,000 so Coop's why run Paris when you can win Chicago and shout us all to Paris
Gaza i'm heading up to Runners Need on sunday so they should have a copy there, although i'm going down to my running club tomorrow and i seem to remember a few copies lying around.
Berlin was very good although it was unusually hot for that time of year. Only criticism would be water stations, plastic cups as opposed to bottles, but very flat and the finish through the Brandenburg gate was pretty amazing! Decent crowds along the way too.
Coop's just gel the afro into a mohawk to allow for aerodynamic advantage sort of what the cyclists do to their helmets for time trials in the tour de france.
Just back from a nice 30 km long this morning , the only trouble is (and do not laugh) I have not seen rain since April when we were in Paris , it just does not rain here and now I am only a month out from NY am worried that it will rain , you can train for everything but the gym will get annoyed if you bring a sprinkler and hose

Well I've just signed up for the Paris Marathon. This will my first Marathon, so I'd be very happy to attend any social! Especially as it looks like i'll have to go over on my own as just too expensive to take dh and kids.
So count me in!
Enough modesty, hope you're all well.
Well done on reaching your target yesterday, and I trust you found your way home out of Cardiff ok.
Cheers Snoop.

Not sure what you want me to do though. Do you want me to send you the Entry Form or fill it in for you and post it from here? If it's the latter a cheque needs to be enclosed plus it has to be an address in the UK.
There might be a seperate online entry for overseas entrants, anyway let me know.
Glad to hear you're back safe and sound.
have UK Address that is no problem , do they take credit card on form if so I can give you details over the phone
Cheers

Here's what i could do, the forms at home so you could give me a ring with your details later. If it's only cheque they take, then i'll write one and you can reimburse me if you get accepted. If you don't get accepted then they destroy the cheque. I think it's £30 and you find out in december.
E-mail me and i'll send you me phone number.
