As said, my calculation was based on exactly 5 miles. You ran a bit further, and no doubt included it in your calculation, so well under 2 hours is possible.
The list grows but some in-filling/editing required. Fancy dress can be a hoot, but make sure it's well ventilated and you are well hydrated(Voice of v.strange experience.)DB9 1.27 kittenkat 1.27 (If I'm there at all, it depends on the next few weeks) SteveG 1.27 daz1927 Stray Celt 1.40 Spike sends Love light and peace 1.40 The Kings Shrew: 1.50 hovis 1.56 Pingu Pongu 1.52? you'l be fine by then and may adjust sub 1.50 Catoface 1.59.55...caution thrown for you Dean Oram 2:00-2:10 Paul Bowen 4 2:10 Im Rio!

Don - I put you down for a stretch tergat....! Neat little pacing group for the 1.27 should get us round in good time.
On the bench this weekend - precautionary move, big picture etc as my goal 1.23 is not until November!
Had a relatively controlled and relaxed run at the Notts half this morning coming in at 1:29, so still expect to hit my target in Cardiff. Just need a few good weeks between then and now.
h0vis. I ran FLM in the CwL charity costume Little Miss Naughty (big purple thing) and it ended up weighing a ton. Though I did wear it to do Reading Half which was fun(ish) It depends on what costume you wear I guess. But if you are thinking of a Mr Man costume it is easier to say no!!! lol
i did a 2½ mile funrun in it yesterday, and rilised that the shirt with all the padding is too much, i was boiling. the rest of it seemed fine, apart from the mask kept slipping down and covering my eyes

Just done Lake Vyrnwy in 2.05 so really hoping for under 2 but don't want to jinx myself
Some new additions I see! Did Lake v with OS at the weekend and despite a lousy run as he was carrying an injury, he got aa category first. Don't think I'll ever hear the last of it!! Contacted by the organisers today so looks like they've got the pacing sorted out. It's an Asics sponsored event. There'll be an early briefing on the day at 8.20 so I'm going t have to get up early for that one. Hope all going well guys

There are still places at the Innkeeprs lodge at Gosforth.It's about 15 minuutes drive from there to the start,though there is better chance with a taxi on Sunday morning. Newcastle Uni may still have rooms in Student Halls which they rent out every year as well.Unfortunately I haven't any contact numbers for them.
Well I'll be brave and put my time down - no laughing please.

i think with a bit of modding i should be ok
Did Peasemore 5 miler run in 50 minutes yesterday
I am shocked and deeply ashamed, My knee is killing me
Not looking forward to cardiff now
I signed up for this event a while ago, but have only locate the forum....I don't really work in IT.
Emailed the race organiser/Barnados again yesterday about pacing as hadn't got any reply.
Obviously they don't want me
Good Gawd, do I agree with Rio???
Will just play it by ear and run my own race methinks.
Sideshowbob 2.05 or less if I'm lucky

All going well, getting ready for the trip up North for a certain event.
I just hope the dreaded Sue Barker doesn't use that horrible term "Fun runners" when talking about anyone who isn't in the first 3!
Eh oop chuck, 'av fun wi northern folk and get back safe lad!
Good God Spike, don't you ever learn. Have a good one.
A chap in work is doing it, he just told me he's not booked any accommodation yet pmsl
Thanks folks!
Looks like someone will be dossing down on Town Moor this weekend! Handy for the start mind!
