Berlin Marathon 2013

Dependent upon the weather tomorrow - I may choose my long sleeve amsterdam technical tee. Great quality!

With the number of events you do Emmy you could wear a different one every day for a fortnight!

Bit up and down here too Ian.

Pretty sure the initial FHL injury is fading fast.  Did 13k Sunday and 10 yesterday and hardly felt a thing before or after.  However, also sure I have a touch of PF that's present on right foot during and after runs plus in the mornings.  Really focussing on extensive work on the many trigger points in my calves in the hope it'll sort both issues out.

I've got the Leeds Abbey Dash this sunday - probably last race of the year. Except for park runs...Then I may end up going into hibernation...

This year, I've been doing most of my races with a touch of costume as an extra challenge. I've been trying to devise a running-friendly minnie mouse outfit for this sunday! Worried the mouse ears won't stay on, I've even taken it apart to see if I can pin them down on my hair! Anyway, the latest is I'm going ear-less.

Sticky - we need to see pictures

IM2 - see you in Brighton! Wanna meet for a pint afterwards?

It's getting there Iain.  Not out of the woods yet and training will represent a steep ramp up but cautiously optimistic.

Johnas - yes! But I suspect you'll be hanging around for a good 30mins for me to finish! I'll be doing the run with my sis. Looking forward to her hammering my time.

From looking at the easyjet facebook, it appears their winter flights will be released in March

For any London flyers Lufthansa out of London seems to have the edge on BA price wise with the odd 'Economy Saver' still up for grabs. 

Donkey - where are you flying from? How much is Easyjet charging at the moment?

2500 places left - be quick!

I must admit to being a bit peeved by this bit...

"There are 85 start tickets left for 60 Euros, 1.417 for 90 Euros and 998 for 110 Euros"

So, I could now go in and get a place cheaper than the one I initially bought?

I'm on the other side Orbutt... I think that they've done a good thing by having the different price groups. If they only offered 110EUR, people would be up in arms because they're "pocketing" the extra money.

...I just thank the lord I am in as I foolishly booked our flights and hotel prior to entering (and they say you get wiser with age )

Im sure it will be around £30 each way ... and I am flying from liverpool!

Donkey - have you had a look at Lufthansa from Manchester? Bookable now £82, including hold luggage and you don't have to pay extra to select a seat.

EasyJet from Liverpool is currently booking up to September 8th and would be about £35 each way plus a £9 booking fee - and thats for hand luggage only and a lucky dip seat.

After saying that, I've booked EasyJet from Liverpool for Paris.

Orbutt, Donkey - Lufthansa sounds like a really good deal. I'm paying roughly twice that from Newcastle, but no easyjet alternative...
