    I'm also paid up. Three flat races for me - Monaghan, Athlone and the slightly more glamorous Chicago.

    Signed up too, will stick with the 1:45 pacers and then add a few kms at the end for a two hour PMP run.

    Did it last year too, great race, well organised, cheap and pan flat so ideal for my purposes.

    This race is turning into a who's who of boardsies. Shall we make it interesting with a team competition? Everyone ranked on likely finish time, fastest runner paired with least fast, 2nd fastest with 2nd least fast etc. Cumulative time (or placing?) for each team. Winners get pride and bragging rights.

    I'm also heading to Athlone:) but I'm taking the easier option of taking my time to enjoy the scenery and am doing the Full instead.

    He hasn't signed up yet but since all the fun peeps are going I'm sure he will. He's racing DCM this year. We are both currently trying to undo the damage of too much fun and relaxation on holidays. A lot of work to be done:eek:

    How's the recovery going for you?

    Finally beginning to get back to normal now. Important 6 weeks in front of me with this race intended to tell a lot given that both Chicago and it are flat courses (allegedly!).

    Great idea Peckham, for a bit of fun. We can do up a list of boardies running once registration closes and pair people off according to est. finish time.

    Pity the cup is now with the beer milers and even worse, sitting proudly on TRR's mantelpiece! ;)
