    Morning all - back to work for me today :rolleyes: Hope everyone had a good weekend! Mine was a bit mixed but can definitely say I'm glad I didn't do the Edinburgh marathon on Sunday like I was meant to be - so hot and apparently it wasn't too well organised :( Did have a run in the boiling hot sun yesterday, not pleasant!!

    I didn't run but my OH did. It was very hot with hardly any breeze. I thought it was well organised at the beginning, with lots of free sports drinks, water, energy bars and sunscreen being given out. I heard afterwards that a couple of the water stations ran out for a bit so they had mopeds going up and down the course handing bottles out. OH got all the water he wanted / needed without his own water supply. At the finish there should have been more - he got a tiny wee bottle of water which he said wasn't enough but I expect they were trying to make sure people got some instead of none! He finished in 4:06 whereas last year he did 3:45 (it was much cooler!)
    Good wine needs to breathe, if it stops breathing try mouth to mouth.

    Is it me or is it not the easiest to navigate?

    It's not, took me a while to get used to where everything is!
