I better get some not-sleeping practice in :-)

MrsS there will be post-race drinks in the Station I assume? We can't let Dod hang up his beard without some celebration.

Oh crap. I’m going to need to book some sort of accommodation in Stoney. Duchess, do we have a rough idea of marshalling requirements? Where am I likely to be and when?

HP I'm running one of the D99 checkpoints over Friday night and I think George has those roles covered - but I'm sure he'd be delighted to have you back for anything on the D33 route. Final fling at the halfpint point?

Can you bring flapjack? :-D *oink*

I had it in my head I was down for D99 but I can't actually remember how I signed up for this and whether I have mentioned my intention to marshal to Dod or Karen or anyone in fact. Hmm! I should check that out.

I did. I’ve messaged Dod to check they have me down for something.

Good to see K5Gus and others dipping their toe into the D33 waters for the first time. The craic is pretty special with this race, although, ahem, I don't always manage to last to the end of the after-parties most years :-)

I've finally come off the fence and entered the D33. I've done 9 so may as well go for the straight 10. The D99 would be appealing if I could run most of it... I'm currently just up to 13 miles in training, though so I think it was a case of eyes being bigger than the belly.

Looking forward to seeing Dod and Lintie, the Shanksis, Duchess, Halfpint, FR and all the rest of the gang. Do you realise it's only two months away!!
