Sussex Beacon Half-Marathon

Jose. · February 2005

Susie, it was as flat as a pancake and I was on my target of 1.45 well into the race but last 5 miles were terrible (48 mins.) basically I have no endurance for the distance. Short of training.

Doing Sherborne (Blackmore Vale) this weekend, I will take it as a long run with a target of 2 hours.

In terms of time I will have a guess at sub 1.45....mid table obscurity is always good.

I'm pretty new to all this running lark, but have entered the Half at Brighton. Had to do it through the post for the first time, but I haven't heard anything back from them yet to say they've received payment, forms, etc. Is this normal? I don't want to travel all the way down there only for them to send me back!

Cheers!

Jose. · February 2005

my brother in law has received email confirmation of his entry, which he sent last week.

I haven't received any confirmation and sent it 2 weeks ago.

Anybody else has received that email?

[Deleted User] · February 2005

I got a confirmation email a while ago but nothing else as yet. Not that unusual tho.

[Deleted User] · February 2005

That's a bit worrying then.I sent mine off a good three week ago too.

Just been on the Sussex Beacon site and they say that all numbers will be sent out 2 weeks prior to the race ie now!

Cheers for getting back to me Jose!

Dips · February 2005

I had an email this week, confirming entry and saying numbers will be out 2wks before. Wasn't concerned though, not all race organisers send out numbers by return.

Did you all put email addresses on the form?

Personally I wouldn't worry but if anyone is really concerned why not drop the Sussex Beacon an email.

[Deleted User] · February 2005

Hi all,

Don't be too concerned they are pretty well organised. I received an E-mail today saying my race number and chip has been sent and to expect it within five working days.

I hope everyone's training is going well!

Shiva · February 2005

This will be my first half marathon, did 10 miles today in 1h 51m so I guess my target for 13miles is going to be around 2h 18m. Which is about 11 min miles so I'm with you Josie...If i can do better than that I'll be happy. Actually I'll be happy as long as I Finish

We could meet at a pre-designated spot in the start area. Anyone any good at making banners?

[Deleted User] · February 2005

How about Concorde 2? It looks as though the start/finish line is just west of the club but does anyone know from previous years?
