Ev - if you havent entered yet I would skip it...find something else to do in a few months

Red - I would do a 12 but I suspect Rich will suggest a 10

Well that helps :rotfl:

Right then, will hopefully be joining squizz to do the Sheffield 1/2 on 25th April. It's my birthday on 24th so I can ask parents to have kids overnight as my prezzie and visit a friend in Sheffield on the Saturday (notoriously boozie nights with her so will have to be a sober visit. Best night was seeing Elvis in the city centre.....!) and then do the race on the Sunday

Ooh good

Red, why don't you go for 12, very slowly and jog/walk the last bit if you feel you can't make it on the day? Also no harm in going for 12 and stopping after 10, I'd say.

Hi all :wave:

Have taken a bold step and brought my kit with me today.... I think I might venture out at lunchtime

Quick question that you might know the answer to off the top of your heads...... is there a web site where you can plot your route and it will return how far you have run (accurately)?

I haven't got any of the Nike+ or similar......

I'm by no means a speedster, much more of a plodder!

mapmyrun.com or mapometer.com will do the trick. Have fun. I'm heading out myself in a minute.

squizz, do you know of any decent B&Bs in the city centre?

redsquirrel80

It's not great for B&Bs round here - heard this place is OK - http://sheffieldbandb.co.uk/ - otherwise I would suggest the Premier Inn/ Novotel/ Jurys Inn/ Copthorne hotels if you can get a decent priced room.
