I was under the impression that the running would be off road as JJ mensioned I think bradgate park and beacon hill. the prob is that from the uni it is a couple of miles to get to off road!

We haven't made any firm decisions on the route for the run yet, Chris - we're looking closely at it and i'm going out to Loughboriough some time this week to do a recce. At present I'm thinking of a mixed terrain run from the Uni up into the Charnwood hills/woods and back: Advantages are that cars will parked up and secure, preventing massive convoys in the area and providing facilities for non-runners.
I'd love to hear running suggestions from anyone with good local knowledge - fmail or on here.
Times are also approximate. I'm a somewhere near the front of the mass runner and i would expect to do 10 miles in about 1:20. I know there are people who might take less than an hour and many more who will take 1.30 to 2 hours. I'm kind of expecting that the run will ease any rush on check in and lunch and that a two hour window will be plenty for lunch. Until i know how many people will actually be there and need to be accomodated i'm not sure that I can be more precise than approximate timings. The schedule will, I'm sure see some regular updates.

Santa: All en suite rooms.
Pudds can pitch a tent and use a bucket in her room if she likes, but I'd prefer not to know the details of what people get up to in their rooms.
That goes double for HarryB.

For some people, Loughborough is a long way (Scots, South Coast etc). Will there be an option for an additional night stay beforehand and hence adding a pre-piss up piss up to the agenda?
