Nelly Apr 2015 9:12am, 23 Apr 2015 2,440 posts	0 Nelly Dave - I loved Windermere the year I did it, and last year I did another marathon 3 weeks after GMM, but I'm definitely not doing that this year sioux - good luck with the fundraising for a very worthy cause. I may well be in Chester, but I'm determined to not make any snap decisions!

I quite enjoy the out and back sections though, nice being able to spot people you know, even if they are way ahead of you!
