Naomi 1.30 pm ;) lol !

I sent folks an email which I guess you hadn't got Naomi & Roger was gonna be putting it on the website.

Anyway - gonna be at "The Riverbank" bar & kitchen - place up on Bridge you pass along the River Trent at 13 miles.

Not thought about a time ? 5 1/2 hours after the start sound realistic ? Starts at 10am I think ? So 3.30 sound realistic ?

Dave Ross will be presenting my medal,pin & T-shirt.

Blimey all sounds so real suddenly that I'm finally gonna get there after all the good times & the bad,but it's been worth every minute & every mile of it :)

If rossy is presenting then maybe you need to allow longer as he might get lost on way to pub!

5.5 hours sounds ok, it means the faster runners have time to faff for a while and slower runners need to get there straight away

Hellen the agreement is to run with Dave & Mel just under sub 3.50 so Mel gets her GFA - in reality he'll get pissed off running so slow & disappear into the distance after 10 miles (all his mates were running his 100th in Cork at sub 4, until he left us all for dead & went under 3.30)

In case he gets lost should have a reserve to do the presentation, must be someone who never gets lost ? I'll ask Gynfreak ? ;)

Foxy, one of my club mates has the number 100 for the half. i expect he'll swop, mind you you'll be in the yellow numbers and expected to do 1hr 10

he also says
On the marathon Liz Yelling & her her husband will be on hand giving out drinks/gels at mile 19.5.

not that fussed about the number really - dont fancy getting dragged off the course at 13 miles Marshalls thinking i'm doing the half !

Have personalised my attire so folks will know it's number 100 ;)

Be good to see you out there Terminator.

Excellent, we'll head straight over to the Riverbank then. A few of the Spartans might be authentically fragrant ;-)

Didn't see any email and it wasn't in this week's 100 club release. Les' 100th at Kent today was so I guess it'll be out in next week's.

Hoping to go sub 4 too, fitness, post 2 to go fatigue and Sparta outfit permitting.........

3.30 is good for me in case I encounter any difficultys in my race, i'll look up the postcode of the pub & if I don't make any part of the race then i'll see you in there.

Look forward to seeing you too FD, plus another million ledgends of Fetch it seems. Guess you wont be hard to spot? Really hope can buy you a pint at Riverside before I head off to rowing club and dad's birthday celebrations. You can return the favour when I reach 100 marathons in around 2064 ;-)
