    We're in Leeds this weekend - hoping for Bramhall but it may be a trip further North if thats cancelled ;)

    Have fun at Bromley :)

    Uk - well done (I think)!

    Red - only you can motivated yourself to go out I'm afraid...you've just got to find it somewhere and you'll be back into the swing in no time :D

    Uk - you can enter and then defer if you are worried about running the two so close ;)

    You could, but why would you pay £42 NOW (or whatever it now is) for a race in 18+ months time? (In fact, you would probably have to pay £84 to do that as you forfeit the entry fee for the 2010 race)


    Oh boo! Bramhall, Sth Manchester and Heaton Park are all cancelled, leaving just Woodbank in Manchester just like last week.

    So where shall we go I wonder? Middlesbrough, Sunderland or the brand new shiny parkrun at Newcastle? Will have to ponder that one........

    Edit: Sunderland cancelled as well so thats out of the equation. Surprisingly, Leeds is cancelled even though it went ahead okay last week.

    So,

    OFF = Banstead, Leeds, Heaton Park, Sth Manchester, Bramhall Park, Bedfont Lakes, Sunderland

    ON = Basingstoke, Slough, Middlesbrough, Newcastle, Woodbank, Bromley, Bushy, Gorleston, Cardiff

    Everything else awaiting final decisions.

  • Nice running Becky hope you've managed to warm up now :D

    I woke up with 'the Friday Feeling' this morning, made my coffee and promptly went back to bed to drink it :o I'm still feeling a bit tired so am having an unscheduled rest day - I think the sneezums have taken more out of me than I realised this week.

    Hi red - nice to see you back :D

    So ......... where are the parkrun globetrotters going to end up this week??

    Should go to Carlisle and work out a route for one if you ask me Rich ;)

    Anyway a couple of dates for your race list havig just gone through my race plans.

    14th Feb Keswick/Buttermere 34k
    28th Feb Netherhall 10 mile
    6th Mar Glasgow to Edinburgh double mara
    13th Mar Dentdale run 14.3 miles
    27th Mar Coniston 14 plus 16.7 miles (plus cos it has a damaged bridge from the floods so there is a detour and 3 miles more to cover roughly)
    3rd Apr Compton downland challenge 40 mile
    14th Apr Keswick round the houses 5.3 miles
    2nd May Keswick half marathon
    25th May Lambfoot loop 5.5 miles
    31st May Chester Marathon
    5th June Dartmoor Discovery 32 miles
    4th Jul Lanson Half perhaps depends on Hull date
    18th July Kent 50 or Hull 24 hour similar date not decided which yet
    21st July Newlands Valley Round 6.8 miles
    12th Sept Cumberland ale 10 miles
    3rd Oct Loch Ness marathon

    Also June (tuesday after dartmoor usually) local 10 miler, august local 10k, sept another local 10k and hopefully early august 4 days to go coast to coast from here to sunderland on the cycle route would be a marathon a day or more.

    Oh and possibly Thats Lyth LDWA 23 miler on jan 31st too.

    Ok a couple of Dozen there.

    All make up for the Devon 100 being cancelled

    Yep, probably boro I would imagine. We dont need to get up any earlier to go there....:p

    Simply - A key skill in training for a marathon is to love your duvet.:D It looks like you're progressing well on that front.......

    UK - I wont ask you what your time for that mile was.......:p
