Seems a big drop-out rate.:confused:

Plenty about this on the earlier pages of the thread.

Well....
perhaps a return to form????
Hmmmmmm..... perhaps I don't need the answer to that!
Well, good to see you back on the fells again Timo... (at last..)
even though I was so far behind I didn't...

Got my runners card for the race this morning.
Is the big number on the front of the post card my race number???

I've not got mine yet, but the numbering tends to go in club order.
If it matches the one in http://www.bennevisrace.co.uk/2007_final_list.pdf then it probably is.

Since I've switched clubs this year I've moved up about 400 places before even registering :D

Great to see 90 natives taking such an interest in the race with their generous donations!

Yep your right MC numbers are the same.

My Runner's Card arrived today. I like the route instructions which to paraphrase them, say "Run along the road, then halfway up the hill, then the rest of the way up the hill and then come back the way you went".

Has everyone had their medical check yet?
