I do hope there isnt a thread on this already....

anyone out there doing this...? I am starting to get kinda nervous... by kinda i mean very.... by nervous i mean bricking it!

i've marshalled at this race before and always wished i'd done it, but never been ready after the inevitable winter lay off to keep my miles up... but this year i did my half in november and kept a good regular 7/8 miles but havent done a 10 since my half...

i need a nice 10 under my belt this weekend to reassure me i can cover the distance...

Lots of people i know have booked and are pulling out, i wonder if they know something i dont!, maybe i should be pulling oot too?!??!?!

Would love to know peoples thoughts....

It looks a good race but I could never get an entry ;-)

OF COURSE YOU CAN DO IT! (joins in shoutiness).

If you can do eight, you can do ten. Then you'll be ready for a half.

You'll be fine...if you've been doing regular 7/8 miles that is all you need.

Its a nice course, hoping its a nice day.
