Yup - that was me lying in a heap at the side of the track :-)

Let me know a few days in advace if you want me to book you a seat.

Good luck for the half ... if you have someone to follow then life will be much happier - though remember to watch out for the incline on the last couple of miles

I ran a pb at Wilmslow last year which I finally managed to beat last month. Wilmslow can be tricky as slightly downhill and usually wind behind on the way out with pay back in the last 4 miles. But there is a sense of occasion and plenty of competion at all levels.

This year I'll have only been back from a family skiing holiday for a few hours ... and FLM 2 weeks after ... anything from pb to pw is possible.

just realised that wilmslow half is once again the day after clocks change - dilemna of an hour less sleep or go to bed early in attempt to catch the hour up.

I'm not going to make last years mistake - drove OH and some some of our friends to a party stayed on the water all night (they didn't!!) trying to get them to leave at 11 coz it was really 12 etc etc and I needed my sleep was a nightmare
