Had my priority members email last week. Going to enter as I love this race and we always stay a few days in a place just outside Newcastle and make a family holiday of it. My daughter also does the junior race. However, the entry fee gets sillier each year. Almost £50 for a half marathon :-O

SO! Who else is doing this or hoping to enter the ballot for 2013?

As much as I loved it second time around I won't be entering the ballot this time. We drove there and back on the same day (to Glasgow) cos OH didn't have the Monday off!

I got my deferment through. Think I will be giving it a miss as £49 is stupid money to pay for a race. There are better and cheaper races out there for me I'm afraid.

I'm in. A bit of a sucker to be paying that price.

I'll be there. Really enjoyed my first GNR this year and it was a good excuse to spend a weekend with some friends in the area.
