It was worth the trip ! A great city, a fine race, and there's a report in the usual place.

Well done Nigel. I'm going to save the reading of your report till tomorrow. I'm too knackered to do it justice now. Looking forward to it.

No it was a great run really, just too many people running in the white section and then walking after 500 yards, often holding hands and preventing anyone getting past, especially me! Felt lousy though, have rotten head cold, wouldn't have had even a training run normally, but did it in 1.2 and a bit - haven't checked up on the bit yet. should really have done it in about 55 still, there is always another one.

Looked for you Nigel, but I'm sure you were long gone before I got through as white started ten mnutes behind orange anyway...met a nice person from Cardiff and one or two others. V.good atmosphere and plenty of loos - hey what more could a girl want?

will read your report now - any sign of the marathon report Andy or are things a bit hectic?
Phew this is hard work !

Hi SW.

The marathon report is done but I'm not very happy with it. Is there too much Dylan or not enough? It's a sort of casserole. It needs to stew a bit longer.

I've also got various other things to post but I can't really upload them without this stuff.

I'll try to stick something up later perhaps.

I enjoyed that bit Andy, the room sounds somthing akin to a Japanese sleeping pod, hopefully you managed to sleep OK? Looking forward to the marathon report. Did you have to relocate _Colin or did he do it all by himself? (hope I got his handle right !)
Phew this is hard work !
