MVB - what time do you predict (can you transfer Cinders's number)??
Taper fever setting in ... recovering/resting a niggling ITBS strain so no running till next weekend. Might try a bike ride later to see whether that feels OK. Its a first for me (the race) so will be starting near the back and seeing whether I can settle into a resonable pace without busting my b*l*s. Would rather like to enjoy it - here's praying it isn't too hot (like last year)!
Hope the dogs have not eaten our flapjacks. Don't think some how we are going to get 28c this year for the race.

How is your tapering going.
Looks like warm but wet at the weekend...
I would not blame the kids, because they are delicious.
Not sure of the opening hours but Soprano's is right by the start along the esplenade, only other I can think of is Pizzeria Trattoria (who I guess would also do pasta) down in Margate but that's a bit further.
Giorgio's in Margate centre is ok too.
For Soprano's, go down Norfolk Road from Lonsdale Court Hotel; turn left at the bottom and walk about 100 yards; cross the road and it is on your right, on the corner.
Buon appetito!
BBC (optimistic):
Sun and Cloud, 22 degrees C, strongish southwesterly wind
Met Office (pesssemistic):
Cloud and showers, 21 degrees C, Strongish Southwesterly wind.
So, looks like quite warm, not blazing sun, but still wear sun cream and try to run in bunches to keep out the wind some of the time.
Not too bad I suppose!

I don't normally eat flatjack but these ones are lovely.

I hope it is sunny and dry, as we are taking our caravan to Hythe for a long weekend starting from Friday. Looking forward to the race, sad I know.
