No, unfortunatly not. It says there will be a pacer for every 1/2 hour from 3 hours to 5....

I would say stay with the 4 hour pacer until 1/2 way, and then leave him for dead? That's what I did at London with the sub 4:30 pacer, which worked fine until about mile 24 when my legs didn't want to play anymore!

got my pack too, I am blue and am no way fast enough to be that far ahead! it says not to start in too fast a pen but we can't swap. That's me swept along at 8.30 pace for the first mile or so when I collapse in a heap!

I'm in a similar quandary, Mrs Winkle. The 3 hour pacer group will be ridiculously too fast for me, but the 3.30 group are a little slower than I want to aim... Grr...

I would prefer a 4:15 pacer too. Maybe we should take something to keep slapping the pacers round the legs with unti they slow down a bit?
