I've ordered the tshirt 🙂 Not sure if it will arrive in time for the Southampton Meet as they have given a 5 day delivery time 😱 :(

Here's what it looks like - Front:

I hope you get it before Saturday as i would love to see it 🙂 Do you know where the start/finish is? I am still going to try and get to one of them to take a few pics for the forum 🙂
 
I really hope it arrives in time, keeping everything crossed for you.
 
Looks great. 🙂
 
It looks great Northener
 
That's such a lovely shirt and I wish I could be there to see you run Northerner. But hopefully there will be some pics 🙂
 
It looks lovely Alan.
Really well designed and hope it comes on time.good luck with training
 
Out for a chilly, but short, run this morning and surprised myself by running a PB for 5k (3.1 miles)! 🙂 Pleased to have recovered well from my long run on Sunday 🙂

Here's a clearer picture of the Member word cloud. I tried to include everyone who had sent condolences, apologies if I missed anyone:

Oops! Just noticed that it has split @Pine Marten's and @Andy HB 's names in two! 🙄 Sorry, thought I'd removed all the spaces!
 
That looks really great! 🙂
 
Looks great Northerner, I love the prominent Rolly, a lovely idea 🙂

I'm looking forward to my virtual half marathon around Southampton on your t shirt and hope all goes well for you. 🙂
 
A little bit slower and a little bit further this morning 🙂 Chilly again (3.9C), but calm and dry 🙂 I don't normally run on consecutive days, but felt OK from yesterday and wanted to give myself two days off before a longer run on Sunday 🙂

Another long run this morning! 🙂 Another lovely morning - nice and cool when I set off at 6:10 🙂 Wanted to see how long I could maintain a 9 min/mile pace (average, varies due to ups and downs of the route) and only just crept outside it at 10 miles in 90' 07" 🙂 Legs were suffering a bit over the 11th mile though, and felt a nasty twinge so decided not to do the 12 I had originally planned. Now for a nice cup of tea and a rest! 🙂 For those who are interested in these things, BG before was 6.5 and 3.9 after - so just scraped in without extra carbs being required 🙂 Two weeks to go! 😱 But looking good 🙂

Well done Northerner! 🙂
And it's good you did the run early as will be too hot later!

That's what I thought! 🙂 I wonder what the weather will be like on race day though - it starts at 10:00, so will be run in full sun if it's a day like today 😱
 
Well with our weather anything can happen! Hopefully a cooler day for all you runners.
