I think I am white can't remember but it was whichever the first one off was. Aiming for 1.11.29 but I'm running like a donkey at the moment so unlikely.

We're driving as the first train from round here gets in after the race has started or something ridiculous. Because obviously a race with tens of thousands of participants wouldn't require additional trains or anything silly like that. But you may have a better service from wherever you're coming from. Pimps was suggesting training it from Portchester but I haven't decided yet. Pimps: what time would we need to be at Portchester?

By the way, fetch meeting point at the tanks for sticker swappage and general chat about how not secret the secret loos are :)

A good spot to meet pre-race is by the big green tank outside the D-Day museum. (https://www.google.co.uk/maps/place/D-Day+Museum,+Clarence+Esplanade,+Portsmouth,+Southsea,+Portsmouth+PO5+3NT/@50.7796159,-1.0899801,138m/data=!3m1!1e3!4m2!3m1!1s0x48745d94e1cb9ce3:0xa00da64d1675a4c3!6m1!1e1)

And the Rock N Sole chippy post race. (https://www.google.co.uk/maps/place/Rock+N+Sole/@50.7813675,-1.0947393,15z/data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x0:0xb8cd92cb19a1342b)

Trains from Portchester are at 8:15, 8:41 or 8:49 arriving at Portsmouth & Southsea at 8:33, 8:57 & 9:08 then it's a 1.5 mile / 30 minute walk to the D-Day museum.

Return trains from Portsmouth & Southsea to Portchester are xx:22 & xx:42 past the hour.
