You running Edinburgh are you? Perhaps not now after your FLM success though eh?
I emailed them as soon as I got home with an earnest request to get a late entry but I havent got the qualifying time for free entry so am not holding much hope of success with that.
If you not doing it - does that mean theres a number going spare? Hmmm
i did that too... have the code for good for age but not free entry.. ran 2:42 on a hilly course 6 weeks ago and 2:44 yesterday.. so will see.. have 5 days to think..
well done Iain,you`ll qualify for a guaranteed place in the FLM with those times.well worth cashing it in as it gives you good stat line position(just behind the pros) and a seperate changing,toilet and warm up area away from the rest of the crowds.i think the times are valid for two years so no rush for this year
Cheers.. tough run..
Will probs do London 2013.. will see..
FITC cloud you know Boston is now 5 mins quicker qualifying.. so sub 3:15 under 45 and sub 3:25 for under 50..
Yep thanks, it's your age on the day of the race that counts, and I'll be 45 by then. T'jobs a good'un!
I've never been called a cloud before, so thanks for that too.
wow I could qualify! never been to Boston...!
It's actually a fairly scenic course. Great city, Sam Adams good beer.. I loved it as my first big city marathon.. and normally you'd expect 55-65F heat.. BTW its something like $160 to enter.. but the costs, flights, hotel etc dwarf that.. Entries open September I think..
