Is everybody planning on meeting in the same pub with those horrible stairs as last time? Sorry you won't make it G, another time hopefully.

Is it The Chandos as usual? I plan to have a post race bite to eat there this year, the food looked good but the charity I ran for had a function with free food so it was only a swift pint.

I am staying the Sunday night this year so don't need to rush off for a flight home. However my parents are down and flying back that night so not sure what my plans will be. Hopefully can celebrate a sub 3 with sub three pints which will be my limit given the alcohol free time ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

Sound familiar Baz. I've not touched alcohol since 1st Jan, so those post run pints might carry an extra kick!

the stairs mean that once you're in you're in for a while!

I've seen quite a few marathon training runs on strava the last few days. Wondered what the general consensus was?

The marathon training runs have been run by very quick marathon runners.

I admire those who've gone teetotal for their training campaigns. A beer at the weekend keeps me happy.
