On the subject of maps, does anyone know if you need to carry full OS maps or can you get away with printouts from Trailzilla/Tracklogs and the like?

Print outs are fine. If not just end up trying to spot runners on the far horizon and follow them instead!

so looking forward to Saturday...

Daz - that sounds a perfect forecast, I'd be quite happy if it was like the LTOB but a bit cooler. I've invested in a lovely OMM smock though just in case of rain. I'm sure you will be well on course for your target time. Are you and Ruth still running together?

I'm having huge pre-race jitters and my whole body is shutting down - remind me, why are we doing this?
