Fab pics OS
I have had a thought about these ideas that I have had. I think the idea of a series of mile events is fab, but I suspect it is too much to arrange for the rest of year. However - if people want to organise an event please do so. As for 2009 - that is when to organise the Mile Series...it is just my opinion.
I think I will go ahead for another Fetch East Mids Mile later in the year - maybe Bank Hol weekend in Aug, or maybe a bit later (Oct) time. With the numbers that we had (50+) it is bordering on a proper event rather than the fun filled gathering of friends - and that is something that I do not want to loose. In the same tone - I would like to make it better - better organise time keeping and finishing etc etc. The highlight for me is still seeing the kids running the 1 lap race - it is just wonderful. I really dont mind doing the work - it is fun (in a strange way).

Awww that's not fair, I think that's being discriminatory
What if I pretend I'm single? Can I come and eat cake?
My thoughts to Barky, it takes a fookin lot to organise stuff. I vote nice and simple, Mile Challenge supporting Moorways Track and Pub/Picnic after.
I'll do The Hulatt Mile too and it will involve pub after or picnic if preferred...

I agree, I think simple is usually good.
IanM how about introducing a new element to your proposed race, maybe a handicapped 1 mile 'race'?

*wanders off to see if there is an 'Out of Context' thread on these boards, before putting Sarah's last comment in it...*

we could use the times from the last mile as the basis of the handicap??
