shyfire May 2013 7:31pm, 19 May 2013 508 posts	0 shyfire I like the look of the new Half route, it looks more city/riverside than before and might be a better lead up to the finish in glasgow green than round backstreets and garages.
Toadie May 2013 7:40pm, 19 May 2013 329 posts	0 Toadie I'm looking forward to it! It'll be my first half and will probably take me a million hours to finish, but I think the course looks quite fun. Two bridges, city sights to see, what's not to like? Apart from the doubling back on yourself thing. Not sure how that'll be.

Pinkliverbird Jun 2013 5:01pm, 19 Jun 2013 1,045 posts	0 Pinkliverbird Got an email today to say that the organisers of the GSR have extended the £4 off entry fee to the first 10,000 (previously 6,000). I'm wondering if they've had a poor response this year due to the change in date and no early bird. I'm still toying with the idea of doing this as I live in Glasgow so no travel and accommodation fees and I normally do it anyway. It's one week after Loch Ness Marathon though which has put me off slightly. However, last year I did manage two half marathons, two full marathons and a 10 miler in the space of 6 weeks - just don't want to do myself in that's all. I just may be persuaded
