Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch

My friend Louise is due to run the Roding Valley Half Marathon tomorrow. She's blind and her guide runner has had to pull out at the last minute.

She expects to be able to get round the course in 2 hours 30.

Is there anyone on here who would be able to help her? She'd need picking up from either Stratford or Barking station or she's based in Southend if that would be easier.

She's a really nice girl and the guide running part isn't at all hard (even Stander has done it!)

No, not yet and we've been asking around the local running clubs too.

The problem is tomorrow is a big clash of races in the Essex area, including a county championship race so everyone I can think of is already entered in one of them :-(
