You can do one marathon on "I'm a nutter, me, look at memememememememe!"

You might not be able to get up and do another one the next day :P

we'll hold each other up and we'll get round and it doesn't matter if we walk loads and take 8 hours - but we WILL do it

if only to prove my nearest and dearest wrong - I'm constantly being told I'm stupid to have entered before I've seen the magic hip doc

Absolutely. There's an 8-hour cut-off. The hills aren't the north face of the Eiger, they're upsy-downsy roads. The marshalling and support is excellent. And there's a chippy or two in Ambleside :P

Can I have a Two in Three group, kind of a little TiT:) I'm doing FLM, then this as a long training run:)

Oh, and Windermere 2007 was my 1st marathon and as I crossed the line I said that if I did another marathon I wouldn't push myself again as it hurt too much. Within a month I was signed up for Amsterdam to do a sub 3 attempt, which I missed due to injury :( so I HAD to return to Windermere to get the sub 3:) Which I did:)
