Less than 12 hours to go ...

I had a good journey down to Guisborough withTim & Sharon. Thanks Tim for driving and to John Clease for the directions (via Tomtom). We can see Roseberry Topping from our room window.

Once we'd settled into our Premier Inn rooms we headed into Guisborough and found the finish and went for a walk down the disused railway line for a mile or so.

Brian McI rang and joined us and we were also joined by Stuart M who is also running the race. It was good to see the last mile or so and imagine finishing strongly!

We had a quick visit to Sainsburys to buy some provisions for breakfast. I went for a pastry, pancakes and honey.

We then went for a meal and looked over the maps of the route. Andy C joined us as we were finishing. It was really good to catch up with everyone. Sharon had a phone call from Dave W who was stuck on the M25 at 4pm so I think he'll be arriving a bit later.

I'm now watching Sports Relief and then I'll be trying to get some sleep. I just hope Tim doesn't snore!

I'll try and post my time as soon as I can. I'm really looking forward to the race now.
