tempted at all three, once you've done box hill the rest will be easy...

Fuzzy Mike, weren't you an eagle once?

The three will be a great run and certainly not as hard as others that might happen around that part of the world

First running. Were organising for a local charity, the QEF so all proceeds to them.

We JOGLED. It was amazing. It's easier to get on the bike each day than you think. But if I could give you one bit of advice it would be 'take bodyglide or some other lubricant'. If you have any questions feel free to PM me :0)

Looks like a fun day out. What is the closing date for entries?

Happychap

We'll close it about a week before the event date. Unless it fills up before then

Hchap

indeed, i was an eagle, though i'd be less formal...

i'm still thinking of tackling it on my own, the route looks awesome. want to run each section, even the stairs (done a few times before, ouch!)

will individual runners run exactly the same course as the teams (after each hill return to HQ and head off again)?? And will there be a time limit??

Can't decide which one to run so looks like its all 3... Wouldn't want to miss the stepping stones, or flying down Burford slope, or the tarmac, or the easy peasy bit at the end And it is only once up the steps.....

You guys are giving us some great events - thanks for dreaming them up

Happychap

You guys are nuts! No cut off time and yes, same route as the team one. We've got a new website up soon hopefully and will have gpx files for you to download so you'll be able to follow the route on your Garmin.

Had a meeting with the Queen Elizabeth foundation (the charity benefactors)this evening. They're very excited and I think it's important to reiterate that ALL proceeds of this event will go to them this year. So if you could spread the word us and them will be most grateful :0)

Excellent - Banstead born 'n bred me so I know of their work. Really good that the smaller charities benefit from these events.

Do individual entries get a bottle of wine or do we wait for 2 more nutters to come in and share ?

Happychap

Individuals get a bottle of beer so it depends on what floats your boat LL. Mind you, it will be proper beer not that fizzy stuff!
