I'm not there either RD .Hopefully we will be on the next updated version.

I'm not there either, c'mon RW, pull yer finger out and get us updated.

RD, you normally get a horsebrass instead of a normal medal, some people love em, some hate em, I hate em. Some of us were trying to think of something different as an alternative, its a special race after all and relatively expensive for a 'small do'.

Convert your Horse Brass into a Medal by attaching some silk around it and Hey Presto a medal!

( Viz top tip I'm sure)

Size of those things all you'd need is a good chest wig and hey presto - medallion man

I notice someone done a review of the race already.

Is this a ghost from the 1st race, or a very ancient subsriber

had to check that out!

that was back in 2004 - apparently he didn't think much of the organisation

Someone mentioned the race organiser had the designs for the 1908 medals - that would be cool I reckon - then again, maybe I only think that cause I've only done a few races and none of them had medals

Poor you Tamise, not getting medals. You must feel cheated

I've entered via RW too and as far as I'm concerned confirmation email from RW is acceptance of entry.

It would be great if we had special medals or horse brasses. I did a marathon at a venue that used to be an airfield (still is really) and we got our medals as ID tags, which was cool. Also was the only race I've ever run that gave the directions/transport details including if you wanted to take your own plane.

I got a horse brass when I did the Darford Half a few years ago. I paid an extra quid, and got it mounted on a leather belt type of thing. It does look very classy.

Though I did wonder about the connection between running and horses. Were they saying I looked knackered and lame at the end
