I'm in blue wave, will be wearing the rainbow sleeved Fetch top.
Unfortunately Mrs gordong is in red wave so we're going to meet just after the Woolwich ferry roundabout

Do you want to share your bib numbers for a bit of tracking support? Are you literally going to wait for one another?

I know that most on here will know this already but….
…if it’s wet before the start, keeping warm and dry until the last minutes will make you so much happier. A couple of plastic bags for your feet to stand in on the cold, wet grass, a bin liner ‘overall’ and throwaway top/bottom could be worth gold.
Although you’ll have a bag for your kit that you put on the lorry to pick up at the finish, you’ll want to have handed this in well before your start, so you can’t rely on that for the last 30 mins or so - and you won’t want it soaking wet at the end either.
Best wishes to all.

Am I looking at a different weather forecast to the rest of you?!
I'll be running in a Todmorden Harriers vest (white with blue and red diagonal stripes) and a Fetch buff, red start wave 2. I won't know my number until I pick it up tomorrow.

From the various FB groups it looks as if there will be a lot of people waiting for running buddies in different starts/waves around the point at which the different start colours merge. It'll be interesting to hear how that goes afterwards.

BBC suggests a very soggy race, but it looks to me on the satellite predictions that central london is on the north edge of a predicted big rain area - so it might not make it to the course.
Though to be fair, since 9am this moorning they've taken it down from 2 drops to 1 drop, so maybe the weather is relenting a bit! Breeze has died back too, 5mph. Could be lovely!

Kinky - if you log in to the app and search for your name in the tracker it will show your number.

The Met Office says dry all day!
I've found me on the tracker but I don't see a number anywhere...

Normally you'd have a number next to your name there, but you're showing as NA (if my race results based stalking is correct KS). Don't know why you'd get allocated a number only at the expo, but you and someone who shares your surname has the same NA next to the bib number so it's not just you!
