Hello again- count me in for any meals/meet ups, please, as I am travelling on my own. I was planning to go to the pasta party at Tavern on The Green but from what I hear would probably prefer to eat elsewhere. Either way it'll be a very early night - I'm with 2.09 at the Crowne Plaza so a 4am bus for me too Mrs Jigs!! Am in wave 3 start so think I'll pack a sleeping bag... |

Hey, from your experience, how easy or hard is it to change corrals/waves. My charity have stuck us all together in a Wave 3 Corral (est slowest finish: 4hr 30) !!! which buggers up my race before it begins.

Cavehill, try sending them an email via the NY website, I did yesterday and they got back to me the same day, explain the situation and see if they can do anything, it may be a case that you can change at the expo. this is the first year of wave starts so there won't be any previous form for this type of thing. Thankfully my charity put in my estimated finishing time so I got Wave 1. |

Entry number is 316993. I've been assigned to Wave Start 3 at 10:20 a.m. Bib number is 38708. Have emailed NYRR to see if they can help. Have also emailed the charity. Thanks MF. ps - Welcome redkate - put your details on the article above |

Mrs Jigs (Luverlylegs)
Thanks for asking that question, I have blue / wave 2 but my marathon pb is 3:43 and have trained and aiming for a 3:30 this time so am disappointed to find I have been put in the 2nd wave ![]() |

hmmm i don't remember to be honest if they were very strict with the corrals.... They were in chicago last week end for sure, very hard to sneak into a faster one!

Mrs Jigs Send an email to the NYRR - 'marathonmailer@nyrr.org' Failing that, you might be able to change at the Expo as MF says. At least you're not in a group who will be running AN HOUR slower than your estimated finish time ! LOL. |

You'll be ok Cavehill, you'll be leading that little race, you'll feel like an elite all on your own out in front!
