    Post it JB. You may well not get in, and if you do and decide by March that you aren't ready you can defer until next year.

    Go for it - you know you want to!

    My friend sent her application in 2 days AFTER the closing date last year and got in first time and she wasn't EVEN a runner!!!! So beware JellyBean if you send it thinking "ha I'll send but I'm safe it's too late" then be warned!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Yes i know i want to, but i must admit i am a bit scared. All that running in the cold and wet for hours on end scary! My family are not to keen either which will make it hard as well.

    I did the robinhood half in 2:10 which i am proud of but a full marathon that's another story.

    Decision time. HELP I will let you know.

    Start training now Jellybean! Best to start early and build up slowly to keep injury free and keep your motivation.

    You have six months all but a few days - it's April 13th 2003.

    Get it posted - as already mentioned you can defer. If you don't post it now you may regret it next week when it's too late.

    Well with much fear and trepidation i have posted my entry form. (i must be mad)

    My trainer at the gym told me not to start training before Febuary, I can run for about one and a half hours to two hour with out many probs if do this once a week through the winter and build up my time after then will that be ok. I dont want to just run that is what put me off in the first place i want to build up my general fitness.
