I was on the wrong side of the road and didn't spot you guys untill I was half way past you and didn't have the energy to run across the road ...... you all looked brill tho :-) I met a couple of fetchers on the way around which was cool. the A - Z of meeting up at the end was a bit of a disaster - is it allways like that?

That is a shame greenbox - there is such a lot going on in that race. Glad you met some Fetchies on the way round though. In my experience the finishing area is always chaotic, especially the meeting area.

Did anyone else manage to find the changing facilities at the end? I wandered about trying to find them, and followed several signs pointing towards Piccadilly, but I never managed to find anywhere that remotely resembled changing facilities - not even a grotty gazebo. I was thoroughly pissed off about it, as I had quite a long journey with a very heavy bag, and I really wanted to get into unsweaty comfortable clothes. As it was I went all the way home in my running gear (with my Fetch hoody over the top), including a long delay waiting for a train from Kings X, then had to walk some distance from the station to my car, before finally arriving home and, at long last, getting into the shower and putting some clean clothes on!! Poor show, I think.

I'm not sure there are changing facilities at the end. I've never seen any in the last three years.

I don't recall seeing any in previous years either Schnecke (you are still schnell by the way). Travelling home in race kit makes for a miserable journey.

There were definitely signs at the end saying changing, and also shown on the map in the final instructions thingy - I think I feel a strongly worded letter of complaint coming on - if I can actually be @rsed ... ;-)
