SimonF May 2012 10:48am, 31 May 2012 34 posts	Quote Pin SimonF I've done this race 5 times out of the 7 times it has been run and love it. Every other time has been a hot, sunny evening though, and it's now not looking likely to continue that sequence. Anyone else going? Simon
Puddington May 2012 10:52am, 31 May 2012 47,511 posts	Quote Pin Puddington I'm not this year. It is usually a bit warm, isn't it? The first time I did it, I nearly threw myself in the canal. I figured I'd either drown or get a drink and I didn't care which. Hope you have a good run
SimonF May 2012 10:53am, 31 May 2012 35 posts	Quote Pin SimonF Thanks Puddington. Used to like it when you got a bottle of beer at the end for instant rehydration. My legs are pretty heavy at the moment so may just collapse into the canal anyway.

SimonF May 2012 10:59am, 31 May 2012 36 posts	Quote Pin SimonF My children have a number of ABC related embarassments to take to school including a duffle bag and a big blue water bottle. Missed the socks last year. Will let you know what tonight's random goods are.
