whiteflash Oct 2021 6:19am, 6 Oct 2021 365 posts	0 whiteflash Weather watch looks ok. Maybe a tad warm! For last 4 or 5 days it’s been predicting 12 or 13 at start and 14-16 at finish. Gentle breeze. Decent for Oct in Mancs.

Spanners99 Oct 2021 1:47pm, 6 Oct 2021 298 posts	0 Spanners99 I live in middle of route and road closure signs went up later than in previous years. There are very extensive closures in Timperley (where i live) and a minority of people go nuts about it. Its like one day and generates tonnes of money for the area (if all that is what some peeps care about). I remain concerned by how I am going to get to start and back again. Training has not gone well and least prepared ever been. Will be taking it very easy. Not feeling love for race for next Spring. Will see how I get on Sunday and also how well organised it is. Might be more interesting in one of the Threshold Ultras - RTTS over a weekend if shelling out that kind of money
