Bettsy, thanks for the advice. My knee also has had a nasty habit of packing in on me in the past so think I will stick to the other two.

 Good luck to you all in the race. Look forward to reading your reviews.

Hello all,

Quite fancy this marathon but am a little hesitant because I want to run the Duchy marathon in march and already have a place in the Edinburgh marathon in may. Am I trying to do too much???

Have run 2 marathons before (FLM 07 and Nottingham 07) and frequently run half marathon races without too much recovery time in between but am worried that I am trying to do too much in too short a period of time.

Any suggestions/advice or should I just get on with it???

Greetings all

Don't know for sure but I bequeathed my entry fee and as of yet nothing resembling an FLM fee has come out of my account!!!!

 I reckon that if you have had your money taken then congrats are in order. Stop reading this forum and get out there running!

By the way I'm with Natwest.

Anyone done the Shakespeare marathon before? Is it any good? Apparently that is at much the same time.

Hi Loppy,

I'm afraid that the 1in4 chance is correct and charities do require that kind of money. I ran the FLM with Seafarers UK last year - they requested £1200. As horrible as it may well sound, its worth looking through all the charity websites to try and essentially find the cheapest.
I managed to raise nearly £1500 but in retrospect found that harder than running the race itself.
I've applied again this year through the general ballot but if I am not successful I will be running the Barcelona Marathon in March instead. Combine a weekend away with a scenic 26.2 mile run
Wish u look.
