But where running's concerned I've never really been too keen because when I try it I'm a bit crap and it puts me off. I need to build up my endurance though as I'm planning on applying for the RAF.

Does anybody know if it costs money to get into Murray Mound? If so how much? Also, if I go in the afternoon, what are the likely queuing times, and will I still probably have to queue if I go on a day in which Murray isn't playing? Thanks Sam
