I'm still coming :)

I'm also happy to pace a slower race(s) if there is enough to run seperate races. RT yes there is a system of flashing green lights around the track you can set to whatever pace you want, if it's still there that is.

We have a couple between us!!
And for some it would be right up their street.
For others, not.
I'm guessing that your eldest falls in that group then!

RT, we will all muck in and help. My 2 can be helpful if you have a Dickensian parenting attitude (I do).

I will/can do timing for any race I am not in. Do ask if you need any help. And, looking at the Turing thread Hammerite has organising experience (not saying that he should arrange anything) and I am sure will be sageful in any advice given.

I think we will manage between us! but if anyone knows how to record the times that would be useful, I can never work out how they are doing it at races!
elbee, you have hit the nail on the head, if I ask Ed to build something in lego or knex he will concentrate for hours but ask him to do numbers and he will run a mile- I understand some people with aspergers love numbers etc., wish Ed did, far more useful!
yes horny, you might have to slow down too much to do a 6 min. mile ;-)

Have been going through this thread, but am not sure what has been finally decided? 15th December I think, but not sure if Bury or Cambridge?

Clarification greatly appreciated. Whichever you choose, count me in.
