anyone know how far the meet point is from Richmond gate? I was thinking of parking there and adding an extra couple of miles but I think it might be quite a way...
Around 3 miles Birdypie if you follow the track around the park. Prob. 2 miles if you cut across country.....in which case keep right of Spankers Hill Wood....nice.
There's a car park right there - that's where we're meeting. It's a pretty big one too, so there shouldn't be too much trouble parking. Go up the hill from Kingston Gate and it's there on the right, after about a mile.
Mammy, if you need a map, just page up once and look at Snoop Doggs entry. The link (meet at start here) takes you to a map. And just do what you feel you can do on the day! I would imagine that getting there at 07:30 or before will be fine.
Anyone travelling from (or past) the Ealing/Acton area and has a spare seat please let me know! Otherwise, anyone wanting to share a cab from this area get in touch also

Jon....best of luck mate.
Cheers destiny that sounds about perfect. though probably won't feel it on the way back!
Forecast is saying snow showers...nice?
Kingston gate it is - thanks for the speedy and informed responses everyone!
Spankers Hill Wood....hmmm I think I remember that from Nike 10km. Wouldn't want to get lost in there...sounds very dodgy!
I'll be coming through Richmond Gate about 7:20 I'll pick you up!!
meet at start here
Mmmm nice. Maybe good idea to wear a hat.
Also, if I am aiming to do 4 hour marathon, should I run in 9.30 or 9.00 miling group?
Cheers
