Hello all. First post here, so firstly just to say 'hi'.

Looking forward to the Brighton Half next month. It'll be the second time I've done this - first was 2011. Scenic route, good support, and let's hope the weather's kind!

While I'm on (and sorry to ask on my first-ever Fetchie post), but does anyone have a place they need to transfer? Would love my OH to be able to do this too.

Hi all! Does anyone have a place (preferably female Vet) they would like to sell for this? Please let me know if so? I would love to run this - perfect in the run up to my marathon. Thanks a lot :)

Hi, all - long time lurker ...

Quick question - start time is 9, trains from London get in at either 7.10 (requiring a very unsociable sub-6am train) or 7.58. Seems to be about 20 mins down to Madeira Drive. Any thoughts about whether the 7.58 arrival is cutting it a bit fine?
Thanks,

I can only speak from personal experience, BA.

Two years ago, I drove to Brighton - arrived at the car park shortly after 8am and got to Madeira Drive after 8.30am. The bag drop was quite a way back, but certainly had no problem getting in amongst other runners in plenty of time for the 9am start. I'd guess I started about half way back.

Hope that helps.

7.58 was fine - weather was beautiful.
Almost sure they got the length of the course right this year :-)
