Naomi P Oct 2009 8:20pm, 15 Oct 2009 4,032 posts	Quote Pin Naomi P Is that the same day as Brighton (road)? It looks like a great little race, just a shame one's 50 miles down the road and one's about half a day's travel away.. And Duncan, what were you doing on "that" site????
hellen Oct 2009 9:20pm, 15 Oct 2009 6,479 posts	Quote Pin hellen yes, same day as brighton. It is about an hour further for me but since B is full I think I will go for that as my target one as it fits in better with my holiday from a taper point of view (on holiday so little running 4-14 april but what running I do do wil be in the heat = excellent acclimatisation). Will then may do shakespeare as a jog around unless I decide to do the oxon 40 bank holiday weekend.
