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!

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! |
