  • Hi Mitts

    not as such, Tracey at HQ has e-mailed me to confirm the number has been swapped so I've posted it on the site, if you want I can double check for you ?

    still no one's contacted me for the 8 places available ???? 

  • m.ittenm.itten ✭✭✭

    Thanks Beders.

    Just for my records, is there any chance you could copy me that email?

    Thank, Mitts image

  • Hello

    I am going to have to drop out of Abingdon this year as I will not be fit enough in time (achilles)! what do I need to do to offer one of you my place? 

  • Hi Beders,

     This is great - thank you so much again for this list.  I'll just read back to page 4 to work out what to eMail you image

  • Hi MadWelshWoman,

     Sorry to hear of your injury and thanks for offering your place on here.

    To get things rolling, if you pop onto page 4 of this thread it tells you what details are needed, then you can send them to beders at /forum/smilies/tongue_out_smiley.gif[/img]eteb@nevisinternet.com]peteb@nevisinternet.com

    Hope your injury clears up quickly.

  • Thanks Kal, I have just e-mailed all my details to Beders
  • AeschylusAeschylus ✭✭✭
    NickP, if you still have that place you want to offer, you need to send a few details to Beders.  These are detailed on page 4 of this thread and the link to Beders' email is in Kal 3000's post above. 
    Thanks so much for being prepared to hand over your place, and hope you make it to the start line in a marathon soon.  I have pulled out of my last two because of injury, but am now training for Abingdon after getting a place through this thread. 
    I've just checked the list of runners on the Abingdon website (which was updated in June) and my name is there!!!image

    It's fantastic this thread is working so well............there are going to be a lot of very grateful people in Abingdon this year!
  • Hi RB. Beders has already e-mailed me and i've sent him my details.  i think Kel's getting my place.

    Well done for getting in and I hope your training goes well.

  • Hi Nick P - sorry to hear you're having to pull out, but many thanks ... I'll try to do your place proud (if it's yours I get) but I'm not fast! 
  • No problem Kal.  Glad I could help a fellow runner.
  • Could I be added to the list? or is it too late? image

    another update, funny enough i can understand in a small way the pleasure the organisers get out of it, they put in loads of work but the appreciation is really ...well.. appreciated !!!

    just a thought, tracey has told me the runners list on the website is going to be updated fairly regularly so as a bit of a failsafe I would recommend anyone who's on this list to nip on it at  some stage to make sure you're name is on it. Do check when it's been last updated though (on top of list) but if you should have been swapped before the most recent update let me know and I'll check for you

  • Looking at the stats, it certainly seems to be working :

    numbers swapped = 10

    got form/awaiting confirmation = 6

    need to contact me = 6

    so assuming the people get in contact with me we've got 22 numbers swapped/about to be swapped and it's only halfway through july !! yippee !! 

    cheers

  • Saint beders, how you keeping mate. You are a true hero amongst us runners. I now have a focus for the rest of the year thanks to Old timer For the number and Your good self putting in all the time and hard work to sort it all out for us.

    How is your training going, Is the injury any better?

  • Must admit I've been called many things but definitely not 'Saint' ! thanks for that fast legs. Did manage to get out for a couple of 3 mile jogs monday and tuesday without much problem but left bum and leg still bit sore today so may stick to a bit of x training later...there again might go for another little jog anyway. . have to admit still fairly confident I'll get round but at the moment a lot more likely to be a 'smell the roses' jog round rather than a PB effort but there you go !

    cheers

  • Beders, you will get around, even if we have to carry youimage
  • Hi Andybrook, are you on the list? You have to be in it to win itimage.

    and now you're in it !! 

  • mmm may take you up on that offer fastlegs, after you whippets have done your sub 3 hour marathon you can double back and give me a piggy back for the last 13 miles !!!! there again I'd better lose a bit of weight otherwise you'd never do it !!
  • Hi All

    Summer is passing by very quickly, life (ie work!) is taking over and marathon training just aint 'appening! Foot still grumbling about injury that stopped me doing London! Excuses, excuses but could you please take our names off the list please - Gill and Rod Jones. Husband very preoccupied with his Bob Graham attempt at the moment so think we're going to stick with half marathon in the autumn - push the others abit higher up the list!

     Have a good race everyone!

     Gill
