LouLou Sep 2009 9:40pm, 11 Sep 2009 1,539 posts	0 LouLou I'm more of a hotel chocolat girl Although trying not to eat so much chocolate to get my weight down and run faster!
Smileygirlie Sep 2009 9:42pm, 11 Sep 2009 2,761 posts	0 Smileygirlie I have to say running past Cadbury's when they're 'processing' melted chocolate is v.tough... you can taste it right at the back of your throat... Not so bad on a Sunday mornng... but proceeding towards Selly Oak, as the route will... on an after work run you will then be hit by curry, chip shop and chinese aromas.... talk about mind games
LouLou Sep 2009 9:58pm, 11 Sep 2009 1,540 posts	0 LouLou ah... I used to run past the Cadbury factory in Dunedin (New Zealand) when I styaed there for 6 weeks. Now I run the gauntlet of a Indian buffet, Chinese buffet restaurant and Italian to run back to my flat... the combined smell is a bit nauseating.

SPR™ Sep 2009 10:54pm, 22 Sep 2009 7,304 posts	0 SPR™ No number yet. They came late last year apparently, and entries don't close until Friday anyway. Expect them on the week of the event, the week before if we are lucky, lol
Gooner (The Midnight Runner) Sep 2009 11:05pm, 22 Sep 2009 889 posts	0 Gooner (The Midnight Runner) You know, I'd never even thought about that, too busy waiting for new trainers to arrive!! Do we know roughly how many are running it yet?
