clare1976 Apr 2012 2:42pm, 19 Apr 2012 1,930 posts	0 clare1976 There are apparently RW pacers for 3:30 from red and blue starts (not green) - though I think those of us on green merge with blue pretty quickly. Contro is pacing from one of them.
Nelly Apr 2012 2:45pm, 19 Apr 2012 358 posts	0 Nelly I can't for the life of me remember what predicted time I originally put on the application form, but I just hope it's close enough to 3:30 that I'm in sight of the RW pacers.

Nelly Apr 2012 3:23pm, 19 Apr 2012 359 posts	0 Nelly NP - Do you know if he is doing Red or Blue start?
