Flip - do you have to have any major navigation skills for the Osmotherley 26.2? I;d like to do it but my navigation is not great.

Hi Jovi - The course is apparently going to be marked. The route is drawn on to OS map pages on the Hardmoors website so it can printed on to paper from there. Another alternative is to download the route onto your Garmin if you have one. I have drawn the marathon route at

and the half marathon route at

http://www.fetcheveryone.com/routes-view.php?id=1195735

On the right of each of those routes it shows you how to download those routes to a Garmin

Thanks Lisrun - am very tempted to do it if its marked. I think these are the same guys who organised the Frostbiute 30 I did ion December and that was marked brilliantly so if that was anything to go by there shoudlnt be any risk of getting lost (famous last words!). Are you doing Osmotherley?

Jovi I don't think it is the same organisers as the Frostbite 30. The Osmotherley 26.2 is one of the new Hardmoors Trail series

Yes, I hoping to do the marathon event :-)

Here's a reminder that online entry for the 2013 Blaydon Race takes place tomorrow (Monday). Online entry will be in four batches that will open at 2pm, 4pm, 6pm and 8pm with 500 entries in each batch.

Important: some "entry notes" are given on a Blaydon Race web page: blaydonrace.co.uk
I suggest you read this before tomorrow!

It seems that, as in previous years, online entry for the 2013 Blaydon Race will be handled by sendentry.com

You will also be able to download the postal form tomorrow. In 2012, the 2000 limit for postal entries was reached in 3 days.

The Blaydon Race is a 5.7M race for 4000 runners. It goes from Newcastle to Blaydon and it takes place every year on June 9th which this year is on a Sunday. The race is scheduled to start at 3pm.

The same thing happened to me GG! No entry button after I'd filled it out :-( and it said 'you don't have to fill it out right now - you have an hour and the form is reserved for you'???
