    training done (finished last at Tal Y Fan )
    gentle trail race this weekend (Gravy 6)
    Mizuno Harriers for me (or possibly Mizuno Ascends if I decide to opt for something more "roady")

    Re: Snowdon 2008

    The shoe debate will go on forever I think it just comes down to personal preference. I used Adidas road shoes two years back and they was great. Last year I used innov8 Roclite 315's and wasn't very impressed by them at all. Planning on Nike road or trail shoes this time still can't decide.

    How many of us have carried a boot full of shoes like Rodders Rambler? Me for one with just in case....

    I've definitely not received a questionnaire. Maybe it's only for the Welsh, or those who speak Welsh, or who's names sound Welsh, or those that have a bit of Welsh in them somewhere.

    Re: Snowdon 2008

    I had a questionaire a few months back. The same as last years.

    Re: Snowdon 2008

    Yeah cheers, got my letter through this week. Stan's some runner up hill, the start of Tal Y Fan was embarrassing as him and Rob left me for dead. Bit worried as I'm not running as well now as I was in May.

    Fellboy: The route is obvious. Just follow the Llanberis path, no map needed. It's a landrover sized track all the way. The path that runs up near the railway on the OS map.

    Re GGGofH yeah worth doing, I drove from here last year and thought it worth the drive, I take it changes a bit each year from what fellrunner says, but nice run, nice area/organisation.

    fellboy - the Slug Family will be pitching up at Llwyn Celyn Bach on the Thursday evening - look out for 3 unruly children and the biggest tent in the world - that'll be us!
    Swoop & I are going to potter up the first bit of the course on the Friday if you fancy a nosey at what's in store
