I'm thinking about doing this, looks fun and a real twist on a normal race

[Curlygurly2 Graduate]

That does sound fun! How does it work? You get your finish time when the car passes you?

[millwalki8 Graduate]

The finish line is the chase car, when it catches you, you're out. The car starts 30 mins after the race starts. The races are being run all around the world at the same time so the last person caught is the world "Winner".

And theres Bling

Surely in some countries it will be in the middle of the night???

[millwalki8 Graduate in reply to Curlygurly2]

I believe so, the brouchure on my desk states that all races will start at exactly the same time (35 Locations).

Maybe one in Cheese Eating Surrenderville

[Curlygurly2 Graduate]

That does sound fun! Shame I'm not here I would join you!

[AncientMum Graduate in reply to Curlygurly2]

Curly, it's worth staying in Cambridge to this one. I'm signing up, how could I not? It's my fantasy race! x

[Curlygurly2 Graduate in reply to AncientMum]

Baldy has already booked our return in March. We normally come back for a few weeks at the end of May, but the beginning of May is just too early Have fun!

[AncientMum Graduate]

I fantasised about doing this race this year. In fact it became known as 'the race we don't mention' because I went on about it so much. I so want to do it this year.

[ajwyld Graduate]

I had hoped to do this one next year, but am already booked for that weekend So, 2017, maybe !

[the_tea_fairy Graduate]

Ooo, what a great idea! I am tempted. Though I do think it sounds like a recipe for exhaustion-related collapse.

[Madge50 Graduate]

Very, very tempted! 😃 I might not get too far though! You up for Cambourne milwalki? Registration opens soon

[millwalki8 Graduate in reply to Madge50]

Too right Madge, waiting for the email

[Madge50 Graduate in reply to millwalki8]

Cambourne 10k is open, just in case you didn't know already, I didn't get an email, it seems they are managing it slightly differently, had to re register. But me and OH are in!

[paulb67 Graduate]

I quite fancy having a go at this, looks a bit different.

[Curlygurly2 Graduate]

Sulking now. I wanna play too....

[Curlygurly2 Graduate]

Whoo hoo! I've just found out that there is a free app that simulates the race - I can run with you all, even if I'm far away....
