    it's not about the limit of runners, more about any time limits they might impose.... look at previous years results to see how it looks...

    Hmmm so I might be too slow for em ehh :o
    Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:

    Skinty, have you seen the size of Buffy's snails :eek:
    20 of them would write off your car.

    Miss Twit brought a snail in earlier...had it sliming all over her hand for about an hour _pale_

    Only 374 runners ran it 'last year' first time it was held was early this year so this is only the second time its been run....if you take the one I did today as an example with the same amount of runners....last year the slowest runner did it in about 1 and a half hours....it was quicker this year but looking at the runners I think some people chose not to do it because of the heat...
