Aww man I want my pack. Damn postie hasn't sent it yet - they might be holding a grudge against me for those kettlebells I ordered last week.

I'll give it another week before I resort to panic

Nothing here yet either 404. Did your postie really have to deliver kettlebells???

Well it wasn't my regular postie doing the delivering for thos - it was one of those special delivery ones, but they might have blacklisted me for being a general nuisance

My mate got her pack on Thursday 25 too, still nothing here. Maybe it's alphabetical - she's a G, I'm an M.

Looking forward to this one - it was my first half in 2006 and I don't remember a thing about it - I was awestruck [or something]. The chip flew off my shoe right near the start and my finish line photo had a giant worm thing and somebody throwing up in it.

So what's it like?

From the looks of the route, good. Hopefully not gonna be to windy on raceday.

How're we all doing? Started my taper today, after my final 15-miler yesterday.

This will be my first half marathon. I have done a few road and cross country 10k's and am looking forward to just finishing. I think sub 2hr 30 is a safe figure to aim for as my training has been very slow since Christmas.

Got my pack last week by the way.

Good luck to everyone.

I have a 20 mile race on Saturday to get through first - won't be racing it, seriously looking forward to this half though.

Still no race back, glad to see I'm not the only one.

I popped on to the thread just to warn folks to sort out travel for the day nice and early because the number of people panicing has become folk law on here and other running site's. Not racing it or anything but if your asking for a lift in a thread don't be surprised or upset if you get some very strainge replies as well as a hopefully a lift.

All the best everyone running it. Was meant to be my first half mara, but my IT band got the better of me and I have to pull out. I seriously hoped it would heal up by now seeing as it has been close to 3 weeks now, but no such luck. Absolutely gutted

Just rang the organizers, said my pack was sent out last week... so it much be floating around royal mail somewhere :/

But they said they would get another pack ready for when i get there, to pick up on the day, suggest anyone that hasn't got the pack at least by tomorrow does the same.

Can someone please tell me how they got the organizer on the phone? All I got was a recorded message saying packs will be with you approx 2 weeks before the event.

No option to speak to anyone.

Thanks guys!

Don't go to the information part... if you wait there is an option to 'speak to one of our organizer for more information about an event'. Which should connect you with someone almost instantly.
