Record number of Applications for the GNR this month apparently.

£75 now.

In five years i can see it being north of £80 if they continue to see this amount of interest.
 
Booked up for the Middlesbrough Half in March, bit of a rip off like £43.60 don't even get a shirt with it 😬

Looks like it starts quite close to the train station so think I'll just head down and back on the train from Horden.

Nevermind looks like I'm driving, just checked for buses and trains and there's none that would be early enough to get there in time 😅
Yep you have ruined my day with this one , absolutely no way to get to Boro 🤣

Aye bit surprised there was nothing on that early, might see if I can get a lift off someone and then just get the train back. Not too much hassle to drive like but would need to check road closures and stuff, don't think I've ever actually stepped foot in Boro before 😅
 
Aye seen some of the photos on Strava and wow! Awful 😂
There's some videos on Facebook on the north east harrier league page. The first down hill bit some lass goes down head first but still manages to lead the pack 😂

All about the ££££ for them. Next year is the last of my membership. Not sure I'll bother with it anymore after that one

My last membership year was 2024.

Managed to get a free place through AJ Bell last year.

Don't think I'll take part again if I have to pay those prices.

Aye he's a greedy fecker is Brendan - hear some pretty bad stories about his attitude. Promised myself I wouldn't go for the ballot this year after years of rejection, but couldn't help myself. Feels like it's just something you HAVE to tick off. Haven't had any emails through yet, so not looking hopeful.
 
Got myself slowly going in the new year, although snow and frost ain't helping. Done 11km round Budapest with the missus on Saturday. Very slow and lots of stops for photos and that, but was a lovely time and most I've enjoyed a run in ages.
Did you run around Margaret Island? Went to Budapest a few years ago and got up early for a quick run round there while my mates were still in bed haha

Nah, we considered it because of the running track but ended up going along the Danube and up into the city mainly. Was lovely like, great way to see some sights.
