I think most well get in off the list. It's a long way away. In some of the ultra's if you drop out you get a gaurenteed entry for next years race, so it encourages people to inform the organiser, so the entry can be passed on. I think that's a good way of organising it.
Injury, work and family commitments. Places will come. I have to work in the states 3 months a year, yet don't know until a month before when I'm going, so I could yet have to miss this one, however this is one date I'm really keen to keep free having missed a run last year. I entered Noonstone then the next day found out I have to be in the states and then had to email to cancel my entry. It's just unavoidable. I can't not enter any races all year just in case many others will have similar situations.

Re: Ben Nevis 2010
I'm in as the lone trawden ac runner.
Hi
Just got an email back from the race secretary around me wanting to go on resereve list. He said not to bother - its already at 197. Thats me out. maybe I'll sit in the park and have an ice cream
Um....not in either :-( not sure how I'm not, as sent my entry form off the day the forms came out....everyone must have hand delivered them!!!!!!!!
feeling a bit guilty as some "old hands" not got places , but , I'm in .
can you not get in because you do the sky races? thought there were places kept aside for those competitors? worth a try..
I think the organisers made it clear on the website that hand delivered entries would not be accepted - it did cross my mind to try but a 500 mile round trip was a bit extreme.
Its great that the race is so popular and well supported, such a shame that it also means not everyone gets to run. I was one of the lucky ones, I hope those of you on the waiting list manage to get a place in due course and that anyone who has an entry and no longer wants to race lets the organisers know.
The Scotts are on to you RWYep, same here emmilou, my wife got in I didn't. Whats that all about!
Not happy
Perhaps there just taking one envelope, one entry !!. They won't let you in the Ben, and Mrs RW can't do Carnethy.
I'm in ~ so my bi-annual trip to fort Bill is on.
Whilst typing, does anyone know where that framed aerial photograph of ''the Cuillins at 15000ft'' went to that was hung on the wall in the Nevis Bar? It used to be on the left wall as you entered the pub and it dissappeared a year or two ago when they refurbed. It was only a small picture but I'd pay a price for it if anyone could get it for me ??
Just resurrecting the thread.
Hope the training is going well
