Same all round.
Good luck everyone. As advised by someone on here I have a variety of goals, depending on how I feel during the run:
- Run all the way
- Beat last year's time (2:08) even by seconds
- Get close to 2:00
- Under 2:00 if all conditions were absolutely ideal

What is it like driving into Newcastle the day of the run. I'm running it, planning on going from sunderland via the a1 then over the redheugh bridge. My mate is going to drop me off then our lass is picking me up at the other end, i'm assuming its better to park in Whitburn?
Aye me too. Orange zone for me. That near front or back? Can't remember what I applied for mowEnjoy mate, I'm on water tonight

That's good mate,to be honest the crowd helps and watching people walking after a couple of miles makes you feel fitter
Crowd defiantly help as does all the drinks along the way. Slowed down last time watching a couple of lasses squating down for a piss mindThat's good mate,to be honest the crowd helps and watching people walking after a couple of miles makes you feel fitter
