Calling!!!!!!!
Oh just fill it in already
<<Floosie adopts bossy-matronly persona>>
Mark M - FILL THAT APPLICATION FORM IN AND SEND IT OFF NOW!
Was supposed to be doing my training today but woke up with vertigo so have had to postpone till tonight hopefully. I do run on the treadmill so wouldn't be passing out in public but still don't fancy falling off the thing.
Good luck to all plodders out there today.
I am very tempted!
JobyUK, hope your feeling better now.
Floosie, Nov 16th http://www.jogshop.co.uk/html/newsandevents.php There is a universal entry form on there. I haven't applied yet but maybe this is the encouragement I need!
Mark, go for it. If that won't make you r*n nothing will!
tis the 16th
Doh! of course Pink you are moving down there soon. Do let us know which travellodge your using, but you said you would.
All this talk makes me really really tempted.
Mmm may even go to website and down load application form
may have to apply too! Be prepared for cold wet and windy though!!!!

I'm doing the Brighton 10k as well as the Nike 10k in 3 weeks times in Richmond park. Hoping for under 1 hour at the Nike and even less at Brighton. Mind you the Brighton one, although flat could be really windy at that time of year, so could still be pretty hard work.
I want to get onto a half marathon round the end of this year/beginning of next (in prep. in case I do get into the FLM). Anyone know of any ? I'm SE London based, so within an hour or 2's drive of there would be preferable.
MarkM - go on, you know you want to! There is a Brighton half marathon in February, but not sure if that is too late for you?
Just looked at application form for Brighton 10k, they need an estimated time.............how long have they got?!!! Seriously though, if I can do a 5k in 31min, then 10k approx 75 min? Is that doable? Would like to say 1hr but lets be realistic here!
Will probably apply once I have an address in Brighton so I know where to get the stuff sent, but definitely count me in! We can be cold wet rags together!
I think I shall apply now, it beats doing any work!
Actually, three months off you say, maybe i will aim for the hour then.
I was looking for a 10k around the end nov or beginning dec. and was thinking of trying to find out more about the regent's park ones on the first sunday of the month.
Need to re-check my diary and some training schedules.
You can do it nessy. The feeling of completing is just such a high that the agony of those last couple of k are worth it.
Good luck to the "Wet Rags" on your 10K and MarkM get that form in the post before you change your mind!
Right have to fess up - I said that my 5k time was 31:08 well I've just been on the website and it was 32:08. But still 3 min under training time so still proud! I came 169th out of 177. Oh well! Slowest time was 40min.
Great to see lots of people up for the Brighton 10k, will see you all there! Including Nessy - go on, come too! Will probably put down 70min as I forsee a small amount of walking! Would hate to put down a time and not beat it!
Well done though, its a great feeling when you get round something you never thought you would. You can give your halo a quick polish!
