Cheers Jono. Would love to get round at 3.45 but think this may be too much. Feel in good shape but IBS impacted on early part of training. Has rather over shadowed it since then. Fingers crossed and hoping to enjoy the day.

I have a slight dilemma now. Booked myself in for a sports massage on Monday, but I have to cancel it now because something has come up with work. The person I see only works Monday and Fridays. So, I could see if he has a free appointment on Friday (2 days before the marathon), but don't know if that is too close to the run. Could go elsewhere, but this fella knows my previous issues and what to concentrate on.

PG - I wouldn't go elsewhere, as you say Gareth knows your history. It depends on how much benefit you feel you get from a massage; but given your main issues are with your back then I'd suggest it is less of a risk than if he was focusing on your legs.
Has anyone else started looking at the weather forecast yet?
9am @ OT - Fair, 3oC, 6mph wind from north, 25% chance of rain - looks perfect to me, let's just hope it stays like that

If you're getting a full deep tissue massage on all the legs, then I wouldn't go any later than Wednesday. If it's a light massage, or cioncentrating on other areas than legs then Friday would be OK I guess.
That weather would be perfect, chance of it being correct so far out..............

The original plan was to have a whole body massage, but after two back injuries in last two years (Sciatica and Whiplash) that is the main area of concern for me. Been trying to get through to them to see availability for the Friday. Can go from there then. Thanks for the advice.

Anyone still waiting for their number yet? Put me down for sub 3:15 (aiming for 3:09:59 or better).

Welcome to (posting on) Fetch Elliot Whilst I've got my number we've got two relay teams at work that haven't received their numbers yet, so you are not alone. The organisers said yesterday on Facebook and Twitter that "They are still being sent out, if not received it by the 13th let us know."

Ah, thanks Nelly - I won't worry too much yet then! I should've thought to check the FB/Twitter stuff.
