Thanks TPF for the link to the Madrid Half. I didn't spot your posting then saw it today - and guess what, it was five hours before the discounted pre-booking offer closed. So I booked just in time, and am hugely looking forward to it. Thanks again and a happy new year.
Thanks for encouraging and practical responses everyone. My partner just treated me to a Madrid trip in April. It'll be two weeks before the London Marathon so I will be needing to do a longish run some time while we're out there. At some point I was going to post a separate thread on suggesting running routes in Madrid. But if anyone has any suggestions at this point I'd be very happy to hear them
Does anyone know whether it's OK to take a couple of gel sachets through airport security, if I put them in the see-thru plastic bag with my toiletries?
