I can't seem to find a thread about this so I'd better start one - and if there is one already, please point me in the right direction!
Well, I'm in - who else is joining me?

Minardi - I have changed the race name to 'Great Eastern Run' so that it relates to all the previous GER races.

124 Fetchies last year and 81 so far this year. i am sure we will pass that number before race day :)

I'm in this year. Had to marshall last year as it was the week after GNR. Thankfully GNR is 3 weeks before GER this time. Entries now over 1800, and I understand race packs will start going out in the next week or so. For those who have run it before, the route has changed a wee bit this year due to the new water feature (!) being built in Cathedral Square. The start is a bit further along Broadway, and the finish is on the Embankment as before. However, most of the course has been reversed, so we will be running anti-clockwise. And, contain excitement, the race starter will be Barry Fry :-O
