Oscar - great news you got that number.☺️ Unfortunately I'm a DNS. I went over on my ankle 3 weeks ago, thought it was OK but only got as far as 7 miles into my marathon on Sunday before I was in pain and what was more painful was realising I wouldn't make the start line at DD. The cutoffs are difficult for me but I was planning to have a go even if I had to pull up at 20 miles. Hope you have a great run. |

Synge - you not running DD then? I saw RP at Easter, he was running well and still on target for his 100th at DD. |

No - it clashes with a "going on holiday" diary commitment. If it had been a half marathon, I think I would have got a pass to run it, but when I disclosed my likely finish time and return home time, it quickly moved from "Tentative" to "Not happening"!  But I've got one or two other nice events in June and July.

A clubmate is doing this - her first ultra - she's Alison from Almost Athletes (purple club vest). She's trained really well for it and is an all-round lovely person - if you see her give her a shout of encouragement please! And good luck Oscar! |
