i'm doing this as my first 10 miler and as part of my 1/2 marathon training, who else is going? Anyone done it before, if so what advice can you offer to us newbies?
It's on my calendar as a potential. 10 milers seem to be quite rare so when a nearby one crops up I like to try and do it. The only thing which puts me off is it's quite a small field. Not being the fastest runner, my fear is coming last which in a small field increases the chances of happening!
A race number seems to have appeared for me too. In which case, I know who'll be last especially considering I'm practising walking at mo and not running at all.
A nice event. Really enjoyed it. Managed to get round in 1hr 29 mins , which was slightly quicker than I thought I would do. Could have done with it being a bit cooler though. Hot wasn't it?

Just me then?
Oh well i suppose i stand a chance of a placing then at least
Got my race number!
I think there'll be about half a dozen kitchen threaders there
Yep, mine arrived yesterday.
Mike, Whats the hotel we are staying at?
Really looking forward to it
I know, you've booked my room too but i cant remember where the hotel is or what it's called.
How is your arm now Womble - healing well I hope
I may enter on the day, see how my training goes and what is happening in my life by September
Cocoa Pop - we'll see about that!
So is there anyone here who has done it before?
My first time at this distance as well. Also worried about being near the back due to the low number of entries !
