Speaking of which, am I correct in thinking that there's a 3.10 and 3.20 pacer, but no 3.15?

It would suit me, to be honest. Running with the pacers doesn't seem to agree with me.

Yes that's correct

Happy toe nail Tuesday

PeterParker100

I'm surprised at the number of people that seem to be considering driving after the marathon, no way I'd be up for that! Driving after a 20 miler is bad enough.

Agreed. Last year I had to get someone from my club to drive me home; and she had done the marathon too. I cramp up terribly after marathons.

we're planning on a quick shower in the hotel then straight into the car and back to Cork...we'll be like planks by the time we get to the Sextant for pints

MaggotBrain

Will probably end up driving out of the city, and hand over the reigns then for a motorway coma.

Q7

Anybody know what high 5 gels are given out at mile 16 & 21. Is is just the standard ones or do they also have the iso gels? Any caffeine ones?

Toblerone1978

Anybody heading up to the Expo on the Saturday from Kilkenny area (incl Waterford, Carlow, etc)?

They posted a while back that they would have the full range. Personally I wouldn't be relying on them though. I'll carry what I'll need myself.

Moycullen1

I'm sure this has been covered but I cant find the list in the thread. I see that there are pacers every ten minutes up to 5hrs but does anyone know if there are any other pacers such as 5:30 or six hours. Struggling with a back injury but really hate the thought of missing it. Would like to run/walk and would like a bit of company, especially if I am going to be six hours going around. Don't even know if my ipod (which I won't be listening to obviously) will last that long!!

RayCun

No, the last pacers are at 5 hours.
I'm sure there'll be other run/walkers to fall in with though

Netwerk Errer

Is the DART line from pearse station to the RDS closed?

If so, what bus do I get and where to get to the expo from the city centre?

Yep, I am in the same boat, first day off work today in 5 years due to 'Man Flu', there is a police helicopter circling my house due to the amount of lemsip and paracetamol being consumed here!!

Get Rubex/Beeline too as Vitamin C is your friend....think I am feeling a slight bit better after a 'Duvet day'........best of luck with the recovery, plenty of time left if we are lucky.

Yeah I'll go from Carlow on Saturday early by train then luas, then dart easy peasy

The dart won't be going to the RDS this weekend, the line out that way is closed due to engineering works. Of all the weekends!

First time marathoner and I've a few questions - cheers for the info.

1. How long before the gun should I get to my pen? I hope to finish in 2.45ish and am hope to be no more than 10 rows back from the front. With about 4,000 people in wave one (based on last years finishing times) it's going to be jammers.

2. Has anyone had any negative effects on running from taking imodium? My bowels plan to fill my pants at the the sight of the Clonskeagh hills (just did a mini poo at the thought ).

3. Any gear related advice? For instance, today someone told me to stick my name on my top, to get personalized encouragement from the crowd, which I thought was a good idea. What about vaseline - where to apply? I'm thinking of taping over my nipples...what tape is the best?

Any other useful advice, that I may not have thought of, would be appreciated, thanks all.

It's not that packed, it's a big area. If you're actually in the wave ten minutes before the start, you can make your way quite close to the front

Have you used it before on your long training runs? If not, don't use it

Use what you've used on your long training runs up to now. Race day is never a day to try something new

And my TOP TIP. NEVER decide to cut your overlong toenails the night before the marathon!

+1 to this.
I trimmed the toenails on a Friday night, on my long run that Sunday I was in a fair bit of pain just because of the angle of the cut or newly exposed skin on the toe, whatever it was. I felt like a big girl's blouse complaining about my little toe.

I've done the DCM clipping already and no problems, thankfully

It's that tender, pink, freshly-exposed skin being given a good seeing to by the inside of your running shoes.

Is this your first ever race? Anyone I know how is capable of running 2:45 in the marathon would already have enough experience of racing and training to be able to answer those questions themselves. Have you done any long runs? Did you need to apply vaseline then (and where did you need it)? Have you ran up a hill before (and did you crap yourself when you ran up it)?

Sorry if the above comes off as negative but if your are going to run 2:45 you have to have belief in your training and preparation.
