ndellar: didn't know about the paperwork bit. Heard about the course change thing and Paula. The new course is supposed to start and end in Broad Street apparently, which is good for me as it means I can walk to the race :-)

Just had a look at the Brum dates and it is 3 weeks after my Ultra attempt, so hopefully enough time to recover. C75 put me down for 77

C75, why have you put yourself up for 86:59? I would have thought that should read 76:59

I am friends with a couple of "moles" that have Birmingham Council sports connections so will keep you posted :-). Broad street start/finish would be brill, lots of support at the end :-)

I'll have just done the JW Ultra (I hope) so I would be happy with anythng around 120 mins god I look like a lard-arse runner compared to you lot!!

ND - Would be good to finish on Broad Street. From what I can remember, and it has been a few years since I have been to Birmingham, there are some nice pubs and restaurants on that stretch of road. So could be straight to the Walkabout (if it is still there) for some nice cool lager :)

I think I may like a bash at this too, flat and fast suits me.:) 3 weeks after Berlin should be enough recovery time.
Put me down for 70 mins C75 :)
