There you go, Maiday!

Please can I be added to the list

 Thanks, Justin.

Becksr1, genuinely sorry you are having to pull out, (but hopefully at least you have not done a lot of marathon specific training yet).  Really happy about offer of a place though!!!
I will email you so we can confirm things and sort out details and then contact the race organisers.  Thankyou SO MUCH!!!

Runner bean, congratulations. Sorry to hear Becksr1 has had to pull out but this is why this thread was set up.2down 60 ish to go.

Hi gang, back in the saddle now, went to bro in laws funeral on monday, very tough day but also very uplifting to see so many people paying their respects to a wonderful man.

As I said on the main thread runnerbean, if you and becksr1 want to send me the details i'll be happy to forward them on but no worries if you've done direct already. Becksr1 you just need to have a look at page 4 for the details you need to send, any probs either of you give me a ring/text on 07957 431189

cheers

Hi Beders!

Glad the funeral went ok, though I'm sure you will all feel very sad for a very long time.

Am in email contact with Becks, sorting out details.  Will give you a shout though if we get stuck.  Otherwise will post on here when number swap is complete.  Thanks so much for your help.   I'm so excited I have a place!!!

Hi fast legs, ready and willing to run again, just need to get a back pain sorted out and I can actually get out there !! Have only done 2 short jogs in the last 10 days, the least running I've done in 12 years but hopefully the next visit to the osteopath tomorrow will get me well back on the running trial, plenty of time till october !

great stuff runnerbean ! 

cheers

beders 

just realised I hadn't  said thank you so much for all the kind words about my brother in law, many apologies for not mentioning it before, I'm afraid I'm still a bit out nof sorts, they were all very much appreciated, it makes it a bit easier knowing there is a lot of decent people out there, thank you again

well it wasn't sciatica fast legs, seemed I've just pulled a muscle at the bottom of my back on the left side and as I've just kept running it's locked the whole of the bottom of my back on that side hence the very tight left calf and back of thigh. The osteopath ragged me about for an hour on thursday , couldn't get out of bed or sit down the next morning ! but it then eased and I've managed a couple of 3 mile jogs without the calf getting worse. Had another session monday afternoon and again couldn't sit down after but managed another jog yesterday . Sat here at the moment with a left buttock that's still pretty damm sore but the left leg is feeling a lot better so hopefully one or two more sessions and I'll be back out there properly instead of these 3 mile jogs !! Still plenty of time to get back up to 26.2 miles before October. Hows the running with you ? enjoying all this sun !

cheers
