Between drink and everything else I'll be disabled enough for all of us.
Ok, so are we all happy with The Woodford so? Lets be honest, we'll all be so dehydrated, the loos will be a moot point anywayHa, think we are fine so!!
On a totally different topic, a work friend of mine is running the half marathon, does anyone know if there are pacers?0 -

I warned you that you could just write off work for the week :pac:Sher I've practically written off any notion of doing the pile of work gathering up in front of me and I've been staring at the marathon website half the morning so I may as well put it to good use.
Hence why I've been replying on Boards all morning

Can someone confirm if the Woodford has downstairs loos? One of the lads in work thinks they may be upstairs but he's not 100% sure. If that's the case then maybe the Bodega is a better idea?
Stairs are your friend.......your keeping the muscles active...a gradual warmdown in between drinks. 0 -

I'm also not going to be able to go sub 4 but I'm going to go out sub 4.
Bit late in the day now for this, but if ye know that sub 4 is not realistic you should not start with the 4hr pacers. You'll only be in for a world of pain in the second half of the marathon.
You'll have a much better experience starting conservatively and pushing on late on if you have something left.
Doing the above could result in you being turned off doing another marathon by having a bad experience. Just a bit of food for thought.0 -

Cheers blockic,
To be honest I think my training / 1:48 half time does point to sub 4 (all going well). I just meant in my post that the demons are in my head at the moment and sub 4 may as well be sub 3 at this stage.
Still feeling a bit rubbish this week though - sore throat and blocked ears. Doctor booked for tomorrow just to see if he can give me something mild to alleviate the symptoms. I fully expect to be right as rain by next Monday.0 -

Cool, I was just reading that line in isolation! 4hr pacers looks like a good plan off a 1:48 half.
I'm the same with a cough and cold this week. Here's hoping it's gone by the weekend!0 -
Maybe if you stopped messing around on the track for 5 minutes, you wouldn't feel so crap :mad::pac:Cool, I was just reading that line in isolation! 4hr pacers looks like a good plan off a 1:48 half.

Hope you both feel better by the weekend 0 -
