Just get a passer-by to take it. I'm sure if they do one with your camera you can all run after them.

Obviously you've not seen our finely tuned athletic bodies, as am sure anyone who did a runner with our camera would probably piss all over us!

Well, I'm (#227 above) not participating this year due to a bout of laziness which I caught in May...targeting a few late summer races instead, maybe one in Cornwall, and the Notts half.

1.48 last year, was hoping to beat 1.45 this year, but those 2 hills just had a sports massage n my right calf n hamstring are aching like mad (linked to back and sciatica history), I didn't realise they were that tight, hope they are OK for Sunday, just going to bathe them in Epsom salts, and hope for a magnesium boost, and try and crack a 1.45, but my half PB is 1.44.30 on a flat so I'll have to go some  |

Banker excuses, pebbles in your shoe, sun was in my eyes (not much chance of that one), using it as a training run and got slowed down by the bird with the hot ass  |

The weather is looking good for tomorrow! :-)
I'm not as fast as you speedy types, but hoping to get as near to 2hrs as I can, last time I ran 2.13 but have done 2.06 since then on a flatter course. The knee is playing me up a bit though :-(
