FREE Place in Berlin marathon up for grabs!
I've a friend looking for someone that is prepared to guide a quick blind runner (3hours 15mins pace) in the Berlin Marathon on 29th September this month. Ideally as a guide you would be fit enough to do approx 3 hour marathon yourself to be comfortable at 3hrs 15min pace. It’s a very rewarding thing to do.
There might be some funding available for costs of transport / accommodation but not certain of how much. Let me know ASAP if you are interested or know someone off boards who might be.
$hit, I'd like to do this but I'm about 4 weeks short of being in shape I reckon. Shame. It must be a tough gig as well though. Maybe better to start off with a nice slow runner. Best of luck with it.
Would love to do this but unfortunately I am injured. I was meant to be doing the marathon myself aswell.
But keeping on point if anyone wants to do the guide pacing for this person I will give them my flight out on teh Saturday morning to Berlin and back on the Sunday night from Dublin. All they would have to pay is the name change.
