When I ran it the sun shone and there is no shade. It's nicely supported in the villages and lots of water stations. I hope to be about somewhere if I'm not running.

Sushi I have only ever heard good things about Chester and depending how Boston fares may end up doing that aswell 🙂 Interesting to hear your reviews of Boston and sounds like another lovely flat race I know, the Great Bentley HM, the wind can make it so difficult. Everything else sounds perfect though and who knows maybe see you there FF 😊

Not for me though! I last did it in 1986 when there were about 10,000 runners and that was enough to be bobbing along with! Well done everyone who ran it yesterday. Stalled on my early morning run thanks to the cat bringing a mouse into the house which escaped. Trying to catch it but wow, a mouse is a real fast runner and still on the loose!

Also just entering the TCS-LM ballot for next year -that doesn't roll off the tongue easily. (And thanks for the reminder, forever!) I'm hoping that having a business relationship with the new sponsors might help me get a place - although I suspect that's perilously close to the things I have to report under our workplace code of ethical practice!! But the website is s-l-o-w at the moment.
