PS. Kitten Kat - it IS gym!! Thats where I am based, and from where many things eminate!! (including Magic Roundabouts!!) Cat (see hayhotfooters web site - link to Gym there, or should be).
Do2 - nice to talk to you today. Yup we can't afford you ,way too expensive!
Plan is to camp at Tangerine fields campsite - see earlier link. I will be there Friday and Saturday nights - poss Sunday too, not sure yet though.
AM waiting for Festival listings to be updated too - I have email notification requested for both camping and Festival details and will notify on here as soon as I'm told.
Thanks Nam. I've booked us in for just the Saturday as the M4 will be hell on earth on a Friday night. We'll get up at sparrow fart on the Saturday morning and drive down there, see you all in time for breakfast.
It's Blouse's second ever race, so he'll need lots of pints of carbo-loading the night before
just had a look to see if anyone had started off the forum for the magic roundabout this year and i see that it has been going for a while!! i will definitely be doing this one again as it was one of my favourites from last year.
Just planned a week with family at the Hay Festival (campsite and tickets booked), plus have entered this fine-looking race. The piccies, and comments from last year's runners and from people on this thread, tell me it's going to be a good 'un!
Jump on board the Magic Roundabout Late Start!! And welcome.
All preperations are going well. We're all up for it. PinguPongu - you could say that for any given race but I personally guarantee the weather for this year ok?!! (even a betting man can afford to say that, what are the chances of it being like thatagain over the next 10 years or so)? Cat
Just popping in to say that alas, I cannot do this now... I have a fell race on the same day, which is a counter for the South wales summer hill series... I thought you started at 10 and that race started at 2 so thought I'd do both (they are not too far apart) but have now discovered the Magic Roundabout starts at 11 and the fell race at 12, so had to make a choice

p.s I have never peed on any computer and resent the implication that I have. Cat

Me and Blouse are in.
How does the camping work, are we all booking our own and are we staying Saturday and Sunday nights?

Hashette you don't need the M4!
Head for abergavenny. It takes you north of South wales(if you get my drift) and you avoid the maddness.
Thanks TT you have FB mail
Nam, don't spill the beans, I've told Blouse that it will be much like his weekly hash only a bit quicker and with a medal at the end
Well last year I was in the last 10 so maybe I'll actually manage to be last this year!
>>note to self, must train<<
Me too Nam, I haven't done nearly enough!
Must also do my entry this weekend, I'll worry about directions nearer the time!
I think I may wait and see what the weather is like on the day for this one. I have memories of it being slightly damp last year!
Hello everybody

Don't tempt fate Cath...

Cathy, well, if you are personally guarantee it, I'll be there
Indeed, the weather was, er, special last year, can't believe somebody messed up on the ordering of the decent weather
Hi All
I'm still a novice with only a few races under my belt all of which have been on the road.
Can you tell me whether off road shoes are required for this event as I only have road shoes ( and sounds like weather wasn't great last year!)
Also, bearing in mind the terrain and location, would this be a diificult event for supporters ( including young children) to attend?
Thanks all for any comments.
