Hi funkyplates

wishing you well with this

go steady, take it easy, go out hydrated, dont miss any water points

They will i expect also offer sport drinks at drink points - IF you have never touched them, my advice is do NOT, theres plenty of tie to sample anything new afterwards - dont let anything new ruin your run and DNF

wear correct footwear and make sure any chaffing areas is lubricated

good luck and have fun

Just got to walk the dog then I'm on my way.

Hope to see some of you later - I'll wave at all the speedy Fetchies who'll I expect to see powering along in the oposite direction towards the finish whilst I'm still half way through :)

Best of luck everyone

Batman & Robin finished in 1.48 as planned. Pretty comfortable run but absolutely baking in the suits. We had great fun with the race, hi-fiving kids, posing for photos, mid-race tweeting and assisting a distressed runner with a mile to go. All in a days work for a SuperHero.

Stouty also spotted Bernie Ecclestone and ran back with a charity card, so let's hope for a little donation there.

Warm day, busy race, got out before the car park became a nightmare. Good fun overall.

Well done Batman and Robin - my kids saw you and took some pictures - impressive running in suits in the sun!

Too hot for me, can't believe same time last week it was sleet and snow.

We got a bit stuck in the car park - until someone went out the wrong way over a curb and we all followed, would still be there otherwise!

Time for cake now, I'm knackered

And I forgot to say - thankyou to whoever shouted "go Fetchie" just before mile 13 - you're the only reason I was still running across the finish line!
