Your baggage will be ready for you to pick up when you finish the race. Your luggage tag has your race number printed on it and is attached to your race number which is in this pack. You need to attach your luggage tag to your kit bag before handing it over to a member of the baggage crew. There will be lots of competitors leaving baggage so please leave plenty of time to drop your baggage with us and remember that we will be unable to accept bags after 08:45 am. We can accept rucksacks, sports bags or a bag of the similar size. We cannot accept suitcases or very large bags. Alternatively you can leave your baggage with family or friends."

Yes, expensive and clearly the number of runners suffered as a result. But the course was actually OK - much harder first half than second and a pretty varied route. I was a bit slow. But slow and happy suits me. Probably reflects my personality.
Siamese Pete Apr 2011 11:47am, 15 Apr 2011 2,210 posts	0 Siamese Pete Was just about to sign up for the event in Oct in sarf Lundun:) However, I declined to complete the payment section since they charge "admin" fees for paying with debit cards, credit cards or cheques. There is no "free" option to pay, which, I understand, is not legally correct. Are these guys a bunch of charlatans?
