Hitch Apr 2016 9:46pm, 13 Apr 2016 2,278 posts	0 Hitch having had a previous PB of 4:00:10 I was keen to shave off 11 seconds. I managed it at Manchester so can retire happy!
FergusG Apr 2016 10:33pm, 13 Apr 2016 7 posts	0 FergusG I'm assuming a UK event would be cheaper and simpler, so I'll have a good look at Chester after all the good press it has had here. Gloucester looks like a potential too, so I'll have to read up on that one too. Maybe Valencia and Amsterdam will feature on my 2017 wish list!

Vixx Apr 2016 4:05pm, 14 Apr 2016 367 posts	0 Vixx Metro_Nome - I was thinking about Manchester Half. It's the same day as Birmingham Half and Amsterdam though so waiting for the wife to decide which one she wants to run
Autumnleaves Apr 2016 4:50pm, 14 Apr 2016 8,358 posts	0 Autumnleaves I'm doing the Manchester Half - it will be my first race in a new age category (by 3 days!)
Nelly Apr 2016 5:18pm, 14 Apr 2016 3,158 posts	0 Nelly I'll definitely be taking up the offer of a place for £35 for next year. I'm a bit gutted now that I entered Manchester Half when it first opened, as I'd have used the 40% discount for that (but given I wasn't effected by the baggage fiasco it seems a little churlish to ask for a refund of 40%).
