For anyone interested, there is a free official Berlin Marathon iphone app launched. Its mostly German but does contain some english. It has a function to transmit your location/progress on the course via 3G if your running with your phone. Followers and supporters can also use the app to track your progress then if they also download the app.

I won't be carrying my phone so not much good to me but just in case anyone else is interested.

I've a similar week in store this week Stoosh. About 6m tomo with my club, 7-8 on wednesday and then a wee stretch of the legs in Berlin Fri or Sat.

Feels weird having so much free time again and not running despite wanting to go for a run.

I think it might have been either printing the boarding passes etc or starting packing minor bits 'n' bobs that set me off. Can't say I'm happy about the hot weather forecast though!!
