Oh and enjoy it. Apparently the crowds are quite good on this one.
See you for a pint in the Scarborough!
Thanks for the advice, thats great. Only thing I' am a bit wary of is Stonegate road all up hill!
The Scarborough, haven't been in there for a while. Great Pub!!!
don't get dragged along by the field into going quicker than you're comfortable with altho' Meanwood road will slow you down
and just run with a smile on your face and enjoy it - you only do your first once!
and yes, see you in the pub after for an indepth post mortem ;O)
Yes Scarborough is better than Becketts Bank I was thinking. And Becketts will probably be packed to the rafters as it is so close to the finish. Slightly more expensive but better quality all round:-)
I wouldnt do anything more now. Maybe a couple of miles today to keep the legs going but nothing over the top.
I take it you have read the info re meeting up?
Having said that I am just contemplating whether to go to Circuit tomorrow night! Its as strenuous as you make it really and you can pick and choose your stations so Id like to do some weights and abs and stuff.
Advice appreciated !
Andy - can't remember name of pub - it was on right hand side as you drive into village from Skipton, with a car park on the right just before. Not sure I'll be turning into a regular there!! Just like trying different pubs - I feel I've earned a few drinks after a run on the weekend.
Stoxy - take it easy circuit training!
The Mason's up in Eastby is probably the best boozer thereabouts - just carry on through Embsay and follow the road towards Barden - it's on the right.
If anyone sees a chick with a kiwi on her back stuggling up the hill - give us a push on your way past!!!
Hopefully they have the wrist timing bands they are always really useful & totally agree don't take off with everyone at the start, much easier said than done!!!!
Any tips for surviving it if it's chucking it down with rain though?
So don't worry about the hills. Remember the golden rule, use the same effort for uphills as for downhills NOT the same pace.
Yes they are more drags than hills as we know them in Yorkshire! Not the worst hills Ive ever done by any means! (I woke up in a sweat dreaming about trooper lane again last night......)
Treiziste- Has someone mailed you their number yet? Ill mail mine later if necessary.
I know the Taps (but haven't been in for at least 5 years), just want to make sure I say hi to the right group of people.

Just thought Id post the link to the Scarborough Hotel map again so peeps dont have to read back. 12 pm onwards (sorry it doesnt open any earlier!).
Nsc-do you mean the owls outside the civic hall? In millenium square itself? The ornate gold things?

I don't know how you have the energy. I need at least tow weeks to full recover from a half marathon.
Must be time to go home!
