Orange for me to .... let's hope there's not people walking from the start in Orange as in previous years...

Actually, of course there will be, so I'll change that last comment to "Let's hope the Orange Walkers keep to the sides this year" !!

Bah Humbug Clatters ......!!

Anyone know if it's possible to defer entry? I've the proud owner of a knackered achilles and I've managed one 5k run since 3rd September so I think the GSR is going to be beyond me. :(
But I can't find anything on the website about deferring.

You're Orange Bint? That must mean I was Green last year!! (the slowest, anyway!) There were people walking within yards of the start of my wave too :-( and it was very crowded but on the bright side, it meant I didn't go off too fast then blow up half way round.

I was Orange last year and started right at the back of the wave. Tons of room for me, though it did get crowded a bit at a few points around the course.

Orange. Wee at the DDay museum car park, hop over fence near the front. Clear(ish) run. Sorted.

While you're making notes, Bint, make one to remind me to bring my race pack :) Orange here too, no idea what time I put down...
