All, great news, we have been contacted by Brighton who are looking to bolster their race with UK club runners for 2018.

For those who haven't run Brighton before I can highly recommend it. It has all the razzmatazz of a big City marathon - and is the UK's second largest with around 12,000 runners - but it has the massive advantages over London of a much more compact "footprint" of the course meaning it's much easier for your friends/spectathletes / loved ones to see you in a few places and meet at the finish for several pints on the beach!

We have 10 spaces available to fully paid up 2017 members who have a valid 2017-2018 UK Athletics EA registration.

If more than 10 people want a spot then we will look at criteria how most fairly to allocate them - perhaps by the number of marshalling or volunteering at club / Brockwell Parkrun events that people have done.

Price is £69.50.

Places can be deferred in the event of injury [albeit Brighton's policy is that an entry fee in 2019 will still apply for places deferred from 2019].

If we can have a show of hands on here, I will close this "ballot" on Dec 31st (as training should have begun in earnest by then !).

Your Run Captain,

Lloyd

Mikel we submitted the list a couple of weeks ago. having said that we are still within the Brighton Marathon deadline and we do have a couple of spots left. you do need to register for an EA number with Windrush if you don't already have one elsewhere. the links are attached further up in this thread. then Rob, our excellent Club Secretary, can hopefully add you to the submission.

On the note of EA memberships, many of you have filled in the form, but please remember to buy the actual EA membership item from the club shop to make sure you are an EA member. The link is here https://myclubhouse.windrushtri.co.uk/Shop/Browse/ViewProduct?id=151

EA membership done, now what?

My torn calf still hasn't healed even with 2 weeks rest, I'm going to have to pull out I'm afraid. 

Calling Brighton marathoners!!! Who is making the start line this weekend?

I’ll be on the start line (that’s as far as I’ll commit)

Super good luck and enjoy the race guys. 

I'll be there with the windrush flag so let me know who to look out for! 

(A) Cheers Paul (B) Let us know where you’ll be cheering from Sam. Great to have the support!

I’ll also be on the start line!
