It certainly wasn't sunny in Shields this morning - I got utterly soaked and wind blasted on my LSR.
Mick the Slug - I emailed about the training events and haven't heard anything back. You know when it's on?

Hi Phil, Welcome to Fetch
It's impossible to be on your own at the GNR! The support is amazing the whole length of the route.
My training's been a bit rubbish over the last few weeks but now the weather's gone a bit cooler I'll hopefully be able to get enough miles in over the next month.

Hi Phil,
training going as well as possible (for now) - only thing that is concerning me is the inevitable congestion at the start

Sorry funky alchemist only just seen your message. This morning: 11am start.
Think its just a one off now. Last year had 5 sessions of training led by coaches but methinks the recession has hit the GNR

Meh. No problem - Thanks to the marketing and organisational geniuses Nike and Powerade have hired I filled my Sunday morning with odd jobs like fitting a curtain rail instead.
DIY as cross training.
