If the jockey's showers are too small ( ) or overcrowded, what about Chester services, J14 (?) on the M56 - motorwayservicesonline.co.uk Or Northgate Arena which is about 800m from the finish line doesn't enforce access, so the showers there are effectively free to use (though don't tell them I said that!) |

Nearest LC is Northgate Areana, about 1mile from the Roodee. Its on the ringroad towards away from Wales. Its just after the 3 Fountains Roundabout and before the A56 roundabout (also look for a fire station - am sure thats not too far either).

I am gonna go for the jockey shower room. Hopefully not many will be planning to use them and last year I finished 131st and although my target time is a bit slower this year it should be good enoiugh for top 200 so hopefully beat any rush !

Guys. Really late jumping into the thread. I'll be hoping to finish around 1 and will be hanging out near the finish with flapjack. Running in a Babygrow vest (nominated charity for event) but will be in a fetchhoodie with name on before and after. Enjoy the pictures at the mile markers. They are all 'graduates' of the neonatal unit I work on in Chester (which is where the Babygrow appeal is for) and a fair few of my colleagues will be handing out the medals at the finish. |
