I thought so - I went online to look about 20 minutes ago and couldn't see a link to enter.

Oh well, there'll be others. :D

Hey Foxy. I'm being a bit challenged today (no much difference than normal) and I sent you a FB message on the Enigma page and now can't see it.

Basically, I need to give back 5 of the days from 7 in 7 and can now only do the Saturday and Sunday.

Totally get that I won't get a refund etc but didn't see any sense in holding onto the spots until the last minute when someone on the wait list can have the places and have at least 2 months notice to get training (and practice drinking to keep up with Webber!).

Good afternoon

Happy New Year to you all - I hope you all had a great festive season.

Just the same info as usual for the "usual suspects" - welcome to anyone joining us for the first time - any questions

just ask ?

The race info from the website is here :

enigmarunning.co.uk

A few "gentle" reminders - please do not litter - I have collected 3 bin liners full of rubbish from around the lake in the past 3 days - granted none of this was ours but please keep the place tidy. Bins will be provided 400 yards beyond the aid station & half way round the lap under the bridge please use them.

Also please remember the public have right of way around the lake & we don't - THEY DO NOT NEED TO GET OUT OF YOUR WAY, YOU NEED TO GET OUR OF THEIRS.

The aid station will have a table for jaffa cakes, peanuts, Mrs Foxy's magic cookies, crisps & water in 330ml sports bottles will be provided. Anything left on the table is for all runners - leave any personal stuff on the table at your own risk !!!!! please feel free to leave personal drinks in this area & you might want to label them ?

A baggage tent will be provided.

Numbers will be available for collection in the far end of the pub under the TV screen - please keep the noise level down as guests are sleeping / enjoying breakfast. Anyone doing both days will need to retain their numbers for day 2 - there is no need to register on Sunday if you already have on Saturday.

I will guide folks to the start via the aid station / baggage area at 8.45 for a 9am start - the start is about a 400 yard walk.

My safety pin order is still on it's way so if you can bring your own pins / donate a few we would be very grateful.

Finally Heather McDonald -Hamilton will have "aviation art work" calendars for sale (featuring the fantastic art work of Alex Hamilton) at half price - It's January & if DFS can do it why not ? Each calendar will cost you just a fiver with 2 for £9 & can be purchased at race registration from Heather. The Art work is fantastic & you can record all your races on there so you know exactly what's coming next & all funds raised will go to Brathay Trust as Heather will be tackling the 10 in 10 in May around Windermere -silly idea but looks fun ;)

We look forward to "motivating" you all in our unique style over the weekend.

There will be pre events drinks from 8pm at the Caldecotte arms on Friday night - mine's a Corona ;)

Very best wishes

Foxy & K-web x

I might want to go on waiting lists for some of this years races but at the moment am waiting on a few dates so can't commit

happy to say my injury is improving and I can now run ( with knee taped) shall def be there at the weekend but slow due to time out and having breathing issues at the mo. Should be OK with one day as I managed a marathon last weekend, not sure I will complete the second day but I intend to start.
