    If you don't break the record, I hope you at least get a lot of sponsorship.

    Love it!
    Tis no fun run though... Well the first few miles are as the red arrows fly overhead.
    The biggest buzz ever is when you cross the Tyne bridge.. Thousand cheering.. And then you think '****, I'm actually running this thing'.

    That would make them turn tail and run in the other direction.

    Damn good idea!

    But you already have that 'frequent poster' award AB - it's not a game of monopoly! ;)

    By the way, what IS that symbol for your award? Looks like a pie.

    Hello all.
    It's me again.
    Only just over a week to go now until 54.000 people pound the streets of Tyneside for good causes.
    Once again therefore I'm rattling the plastic collection pot... please look down the back of your sofa, under the dog, in the wife's purse for any spare change for such a great cause.
    Thanks ever so much.
    ACS

    Great cause ACS and one that is close to my heart also. I have a monthly debit to Cancer Research, but more than happy to support your run also.
    Good Luck and run safely
