You saying there's a chance you won't be able to run?

Afraid so. Stubbornly focusing on running it anyway but starting to consider the non stubborn withdrawal. Giving myself every chance with home remedies, chemist and doctor remedies and not being stupid and running this evening remedy
But honestly if I feel as bad as I did this morning on Monday I will have to bow out. 0 -

Im really sorry to hear that PM, that really sucks. Keeping taking as many home remedies as possible, when I was sick last week I took enough Vitamin C to sink a ship but it def seemed to do the trick, the ones that dissolve in water, and a good spoon of manuka honey with lemsip cool and flu every few hours, and a few hot baths. Im not a praying lady but will be sending as many positive vibes as possible your way! Keep us posted0 -

I've lost count of the amount of times I've heard that last sentence been uttered before an epic fail.
Enjoy your legs this weekend. They won't feel the same for another month with this approach to marathon training. This will be a train wreck!!0 -
Meant to say, heard and saw killian chatting to the girl doing MC. You came across very well Killian. Would have waited to say hello but she didn't want to let you go
Oh, thank you! I think Joanne was glad to have someone to chat to in order to fill time - I could tell she was running out of material and to be fair, theres nothing Im better at than talking about myself!0 -

Hope you can make it PM. Plenty of sleep could work wonders.
One thing I haven't liked about the marathon and its prep so far is that you could put an excellent block of training together and on the day it may not happen due to a small cold or a simple small injury. I was running during the week and nearly twisted my ankle on what I presume was a conker on the running path.
You need a lot to go right.
Before I came up today I had a list made out of everything I needed to take and was ticking it off and double checking to make sure. Just forgetting something like vaseline and you would be in trouble. Speaking of the v word would I be ok putting it on about an hour before the race or will it have dried too much? Normally I would just put it on before I go out. Think I will be layering it on before the race. Have had no issue with nipples or feet so far. I wear the double layered 1000 mile socks and they give good protection.0 -

Hopefully see you on Monday
Don't think I'm as sick as you but feel like in getting a cold so sitting tight tonight. Have done very little running this week but feeling bursts of confidance through the nervousness!! Hopefully I'll see a few of you in the pub. What sort of time will people start arriving?0 -
