Cheers for the pee advice, both the official and unofficial 

Getting really excited now, picked my pack up yesterday, hope to be there for about 8:15, travelling up from Enniskillen.

i went out for a wee three miler earlier - the last run on my training plan, despite being overcast and windy it was quite warm, I'd be happy enough with today's weather tomorrow!

good luck everyone!  X

Good luck to everyone for Monday, I'm bricking it!

Tim, I hate the wind too - dont care if it rains but please no wind.

Poke - if theres no left for you there will certainly be non left for me by the time I get round.  Its more the toilet facilities I'm worried about considering I need a wee at least every three miles

Hi all, I'm doing belfast myself. It's my first ever marathon and being more a plodder than a runner I'm not expecting any great time rather just hoping to finish!

Cheers guys, I was away at the weekend, ironically providing the post event massage after a charity cycle. Didn't get the chance to run until Sunday evening and the back was well improved. Whatever I had done cant have been too serious despite the god awful pain!

Can anyone advise please (and sorry if I ramble)?  I am in the middle of training for my first ever marathon and was rolling out my muscles on Tuesday evening after a four miler and decided to lie with the roller down my spine as indicated on the leaflet that came with it to stretch out my pelvis and chest. 

I took backache on Wednesday afternoon but it wasn't too bad.  On thursday morning it was still there and by the time I came into work it was excrutiating; in my lower back right round the front so that it was burning through my whole pelvis and radiating down the fronts of my two legs.

The doctor said it was probably a disc pressing on a nerve and advised me to hang up my running shoes that marathon running was for much younger people (I am 46).

I just want to know if this is likely to heal itself, if I should give up now or try and finish my training (for Belfast 6th May), obviously I didn't do my scheduled run on Thursday night nor will I run this weekend but will missing three sessions have a big impact on the overall training?

God I feel lousy! 

Thanks for any advice!
