    It sounds like the going is pretty hard from the last couple of pages of comments and those Harriers have a sole like a piece of concrete so they're looking second best.

    I'm looking forward to everything about this race with the exception of the 250-mile drive up from Windsor. And yes, it's been pretty hard to find hills to practice on down here!
    Hope you're not planning on driving back straight after the race - Ranulph Fiennes post race drive ended in tears.

    Do tell more Ady, I'm planning on driving there and back after the race, that's if I've got over a bit of a niggle I've got at the moment

    Driving back to Harrogate will be fine (Ranulph fell asleep at the wheel driving back after the High Peak Marathon in 2010)

    I'm running for sure but actually calling it racing is another thing altogether

    Right, I think everybody should post their estimated times & see how close they get. I'm guessing 4.10 for myself. But would love sub 4.

    Good luck with that one Andy.

    Probably a big fat 0 for me, calf injury is getting better but just not quick enough:thunbdown:, thought I'd be ok but perhaps not?, can't even run up stairs at the moment so may be need to be a bit realistic. damn :thunbdown:

    Good luck to all you fellow fellster's!!!:thumbup:
