Seems that you can only track 30 runners at a time :mad:

Greenmachine · 26-10-2015 10:47AM

Best of luck to everyone running today. I realise everyone has already set out over an hour now, so no time for any last minute reminders; but I know Dubgal has done a terrific job keeping all the Marathoner up to speed. Even as someone who has largely lurked in the thread, and not contributed alot, i am extremely grateful to Dubgal for all the effort she has put in, and all the other contributors, whether they have shared useful links, asked questions others were afraid to ask or just shared their training journey.

Clearlier · 26-10-2015 11:28AM

I think that everyone who started is at least through 10k with Singer, MOB, Healy and Feena fast approaching 30k.

The Bazman is hopefully having the race of his life as current pace has him finishing 18 mins ahead target :eek:.

Steady pace from almost everyone so far too, slightly quicker to halfway than it was to 10k which is great.

hillsiderunner · 26-10-2015 11:32AM

I have been keeping a eye on some of the Novices too. Some great consistency there like Clearlier says.

Had a bit of a panic as the tracker lost honorary novice annap between 10k and the HM point, but she is there again and running a very nice consistent pace! It still seems to have lost Smashiner (since 10k) though ....

Ok, better get some work done ....

Ososlo · 26-10-2015 11:44AM

How's TFGR and Whoops doing anyone? Don't know names.

TFGR is bib number 14013 and is at 9.5miles, going at a consistent pace. No entry for whoops in the table, so don't know ...

aquinn · 26-10-2015 11:47AM

Couldn't find her either. Neil doing well. 4:02 est finish.

aquinn · 26-10-2015 11:52AM

Neady and Nop doing great. Hope Smash is ok.

He dropped off the tracker at exactly the same point as annap, so might just be that the tracker didn't re-connect him at HM stage.... Yep, nop is looking very consistent!

Whoops got to 10k at 01:11:49. Tracker is stuck at 13.1 miles now.

aquinn · 26-10-2015 12:03PM

What's her number?

Mrs Mc sticking to D and doing well.

Thanks, hope she is ok.

Both herself and smashiner are back on the tracker ... smashiner at 19.1 miles (about 10secs behind annap), whoops at 13.7.

Have to say that TFGR's consistency of pace is incredible as I think there's not a pacer there...

hillsiderunner · 26-10-2015 12:20PM

jake1970 has finished under his sub 3:20 target!
