So is it 250 for a relay team?? How much will an 'official IM cost next year?
Amazes me how people (and I have been guilty of this in the past) will always find a way to justify an entry fee for a race they want to do, when it is clearly taking the piss. Tri race fees are the premiership footballers of mainstream participation sports. No goodie bag is worth the fees and if you think you are paying for the experience then think again, it is you, the individual doing it, that makes the 'experience. Not the crowds or the flashy banners or anything else. They should be paying us!!
Can you help me raise much needed funds for the BRATHAY TRUST?
On Saturday the 09th October 2010 I will be running 105 laps (26.2miles) of Rowheath track. And will be looking for 105 people to join me. Each person will be asked to pay £1 and in return they get to run a lap of the track with me. Or for £5 they can run unlimited laps
All the money raised will be going forward to the Brathay 10 marathons in 10 days fund. For more information on my challenge you can visit

wouldnt the 10th of the 10th 2010 have been more appropriate ??
What if you get more than 105 people?
Just playing Devils advocaat ... he may end up selling some laps more than once
You may get people who want to buy more than one lap .. there is potential to get a lot of sponsorship if there is no limit on the amount of laps
no limits to laps
I dont know why but I like that phrase.
do you want us to sign up for it somewhere? and pay on the day
or put our money on the just giving page with a comment next to it?
Can you wait till I get there before you start?
Would you not assume the answer to that is "as much as possible"
Though he may have an exact figure in mind I suppose.
Well if he wants 105 people paying a pound, it dont seem like a lot.
or have i read it wrong
105 people paying a pound a lap or £5 for unlimited laps
you have read it wrong
As much as possible.
every little bit helps. £1 for 400m or £5 for a training run? doesn't seem to bad ?
How much you going to give him then eh?
Cough up!!!
