Is this full yet? Think I'll give the office a bell & ask. Did the half last year & suddenly feeling like doing the full.
Did the Fleetwood marathon on Sunday & feel so elated I ran it all without walking that I want to do another one! Feel I have to strike fast & do another while my back is ok, as normally I can't run for more than 3 hours as my back is too bad. But it feels better now than it has in 30 years, so I think I have another marathon in me!!
I'm feeling ninja Hot Tub It's SO exciting when you run your first marathon the whole way. I had to walk loads of the Blackpool one last year as I'd not been running that long. Didn't see you at Race the Train. It was good wasn't it? Spoke to you when I did your Ennstone race. That was a nice race too. Hilly...but nice....
I am eagerly looking forward to this one although I am a little nervous about running non-stop for 26 miles on the road. I have done many marathons this year but most have been off road trail races so there has been a lot of stopping and starting. I expect this to be quite a test for me especially as I entend to stick as close to my 8 minute miling as possible. I know i'll be sound for at least 20 miles, then I may be gritting my teeth try to hold on.

I have entered this morning, number on its way in the post, so I'll defo be there.
Is it just water at the water stations? (I suppose the clue is in the name) And is it bottles or plastic cups?
Um, dunno but I have my entry pack which I can look at when I get in.
I have a feeling that it is only water because I remember thinking I would take gels......
Gosh
And assorted other intellectually stimulating videos.
Have no idea why I excited about this, but really looking forward to it !
