  • evab - may I just say that I think you are completely and absolutely mad. Welcome to the club!!!! ;)

    People think that I'm crazy for deciding to train for a marathon at my age but I just don't care - I'm doing it for me not for them. So, a big well done - it's nice to have a challenge and you certainly have picked a corker :rotfl:

    Bloody family, my mum said yesterday 'where are you going to practice' when I told my parents my plans. My brother (who did the run with my other brother and hubbie 3 years ago) said 'I'll believe it when I see you at the start line'. So much for family support, I think I'll stick to my co-runners on here and my hubbie!

    Thanks Simply, and I feel I know the route already as my hubbie told me all the gory details. I'll have a look what the gradient is for the first 4 miles.

    2009 Route & Profile

    Race start time is 10.30am from Nant Peris, a free bus service to the start is available from event HQ in Llanberis. Buses will run from approx. 9am onwards. From the start at Nant Peris (300ft) the route follows the A4086 and climbs to the top of the Llanberis Pass (Pen y Pass 1,100ft).
    It follows the A498 to Beddgelert (200ft) and there continues along the A4085 to Waunfawr. From here it is a rapid climb to about 1,200ft at Bwlch y Groes (a short length is unmetalled) and then downhill to the finish in Llanberis.:eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:
