I've entered too - Beachy will be my first marathon and then this. It is a bit rash because beachy may put me off for life, but it is so close to home and a one-off so a shame to miss it.
Redhead - Petal's not in for this one - she hates straight road marathons but is fine when it's part of an Ironman or an off-road challenge. after she's done IM France and Beachy Head she's giving up on anything more than a 1/2 marathon as frankly she hates long distance running!! it bores her
Just been speaking to someone, they reckon it could be full, I sent my entry in by post, getting a bit concerned!! anyone know how many entries so far??
sorry, don't know ian. someone who does may be along soon
the police are no fun, are they, captain?
beachy is on my 2009 list, have heard it's fantastic. can't believe i have a marathon list when i haven't done my first yet! come april 27th i'll probably be sobbing 'never again'!
that is a big difference - no wonder beachy head has a reputation as a seriously tough marathon!
i hadn't realised just how much hills take out of you until i did a flat half marathon a couple of months ago. i saw just how much fresher you stay without that surge in heart rate and quad overload! doesn't happen a lot where i live, especially when i'm with the running club who are masochists to a man. have to confess mara training on my own has taken me along the canal a lot .
well done on the 4:17, sort of time i daydream of getting! where did you get that?
You're not fretting already are you RD, 8 months of fretting is a long time....., theres nothing stopping you entering Beach Head this year you know .
Capt'n, cant you wear your pants over your shorts in true wonderman style??????? Beachy in under 5 hours, I'm not sure I'm gonna get under 5 hours at stratford in a few weeks time ......., , I shall try my hardest though.

I not that normally caught up on times, But I just want it!
My 4:17 was Luton, (probably just wanted to get away as soon as possible)
And Pants over shorts... Intresting.... I should try that... Or just on my head..!
yes there is, sl... sanity
nope, not fretting about hastings (yet!), just asking about beachy head for NEXT YEAR!!!!
pants on the head - could be a forum look - that way we could all recognise each other at races -result!
You want to do Beachy this Year....
It is your Destiny!
In one sentence you talk of sanity RD, in the next you talk of pants on head , are you schizophrenic?????
