Just printed off a list on forumites and disabled notification so as not to fill my in box!! Hope to see some of you on Sunday - I will be i a Blue GWR top.
I'm On top of the hill in Corston and can just about see the route from here...Bathed in sunshine! Take plenty of fluids all! It's gonna be a scorcher... Stace. {:o)¬<
Best of luck to everyone,especially those that I've met and talked to on the forums. Would have run it myself, but it clashed with a pre booked half. :-( Extra special good wishes to Zoom.Hope you enjoy it !!!!
If anybody in the Bristol area wants to run this race, I have a race pack and an injured ankle. Therefore (I know you are not supposed to run with a number not attached to you but) if somebody would like it and can collect the race number from Portishead, it's yours.
Email me on joe.tripp@btopenworld.com if you would like it.
Hope to see some of you tomorrow if I get there! It's in question this morning as I'm suffering with my lower back. Sod's law, it's the first time in 2 years my dodgy back has come back to haunt me. Doing everything I can to try and loosen it up today, so fingers crossed the cold baths and painkillers will do the trick.
Good luck everyone, hope you all have brilliant races!
The fog has finally cleared - it's a bright warm sunny day here (12m East of Bath)
Tea & Toast Man - snap! I've concluded that my dodgy back of knee is hamstring-related and not calf. It's still a bit tight today, but Tubi-Grip and a restful day should see me right.
Good luck to everyone - hopefully meet up with as many as I can in the beer tent. RD
I'll be there supporting, because its what I'm good at:-)) Will have some kids with me , I think, but not yet sure which ones.
Will try and meet you at the start.
Before the race begins we will move to see you all run past.
Last time we stood on your right down near the first set of lights before you go under the bridge. You will have run up from the start, round the corner and back in the same direction you came from:-))) For the finish we'll stand on your left about halway down the finish straight.
Looking forward to cheering on as many of you as we can spot, hope you all have a great race.
Looking forward to tomorrow too. just wondered is anybody else still waitinf for their race merchandise? Boyfriend had ordered Tshirt back in Jan but still no sign - have tried emailing about it just to be told it was mailed out on 10 March! Shame as he was looking forward to getting one that fit for a change - thankfully I didn'y bother.
I'm setting off in about an hour from Dorset so I'll look out for those I can near the information tent if I can find it! Having never done Bath before I have no visualisation on where things are.
May I be the first to congratulate the Race Director on a well organised and excellent race. Such an improvement on last year. A much harder course than I remember though. Still I got a pb at 1:26:55

I think pre race we used the info tent last year which was right in the middle of the field.
Getting warm here in Wick.
