The countdown continues.... 27 days to go...

How is the preparation going?

Any others taking part?

You're not too far from the Regent's Canal.

Long flat pathways, traffic free and lots of interesting sites to see

Straight home? What about the post-race taper? That's the best part

Hi J1M, Cicero,

I just sumbled accross your posts as well

I did my first ever Dulwich Parkrun on Saturday. I managed to get round in under 20mins, despite the snow. --- There is a good picture here - http://youcantrunaway.com/anyone-notching-a-pb-in-this-is-due-a-chat-with-oprah/

There's a good crowd down there but three laps is a little bit repetitive. Have you done the one in Brockwell Park?

Thanks for the reply

I thought everyone who had a place must have a qualifying time and as they tightened it up this year I imagined that everyone would be finishing in somewhere around the three hour or less mark, hence thinking it would be very congested.

But looking at last years results there is a huge spread of finishing times. I guess there are a lot of charity places or other ballot places that they give out to people without a qualifying time?
