It's going to be good weather this year  We are in our usual spot marshalling at the top of the last hill when you will have about 2-300 metres to go, all down hill! good luck guys

One of my slowest Beachys but by far my strongest. Difference between the second half and first was about seven minutes. Bit less time at Sossidge Roll corner and Birling Gap and I might well have got a negative split. Good to see a few fellow Fetchies out and about around the course and at Race HQ

Loved every minute (and that's saying a lot as I was out there nearly 7 hours!) - fabulous marathon, best checkpoint EVER at 16 miles, all the marshals were fabulous, amazing views. Ran with a friend whose knee packed up at 19 miles so we took it slow and played it for laughs Great to see so many Fetchies out there today, glad I know now it was .B. at that last marshal spot, thanks for the encouragement. Tired but happy

Good to see you Tracey G and Iron_Mum and sallykate and PloddingHippo yesterday! And several more fetchies earlier who got away. Well done everyone. Hope to be running it next year instead of marshalling/sweeping (which was utterly knackering too!).

Just remembered the rather surreal sight of a large group of twitchers up on Beachy Head intently watching a clump of bushes as the runners all streamed by

LOL, yep, we were laughing at that - imagining the bird sitting in the trees behind watching the bush and wondering what was so interesting!
