I've not really done the training this year but aiming to go out and enjoy it. I'd recommend that you get there early and park politely on the residential roads a good distance away or car parks in Wilmslow itself. It gets very busy near the Rugby Club. Much better to jog in last half mile.

Anyone now a good spot that is not in a heavy parking area? I was thinking Broadoak Lane - the field should be a lot less busy by then. The other factor is that I have to make a quick getaway as my mother in law is up for the weekend and I'll need to rush off to Altrincham to see her.

Forecast looks like good PB weather goodluck everyone theboybarry - remember 1:35:24 to beat

Kwaka has suggested the loop part of the course is a good spectator spot...Small Lane, Wood Lane, Breach House Lane... Hopefully see folk there - good luck to all!
