There's no problem with this just as long as we know who the new runner is. It helps prevent any messups in the results, and heaven forbid someone is taken ill at the event it allows us to contact the right people / establish your medical history. Please fmail me if you are changing numbers. Thanks

Homer - Cheers for the email, I shall get started on those excercises to eliminate the need for drug dependancy.

I realise this doesn't answer your question, but it might make you feel better.
