I have just received the email too. I have forwarded it to my niece - we did the first one together - she might be interested in joining me in this. However, there are nearly 6 weeks for the UK government to change their minds so not sure if we will be able to travel to the UK anyway😅

So many unknowns! There is definitely some covid cover in there, but possibly only if they have to cancel the event.

I’m definitely interested in this but for the life of me I can’t seem to find the actual date of it on that website.

It's on Sunday 1st August

Thank you Linda. A HM is further than I’d like, but it’s a great location, and a live event, so that wins for me. 😀

It was a great event back in 2019!

Thinking a bit more about this I’m not sure there’s enough time between now and then to be ready to run it. 🤔 I’ve never trained for a HM before. My 2 previous ones fell out of the sky as I had not gone out intending to run them. 😬

Depends what you want to get out of it. I'd say just run it slowly ... but it's you so where's the point in suggesting that!!! If pace isn't an issue you've got 5 weeks or so. I got from HM to a slow FM in 5 weeks (have been ever so slightly broken ever since mind you). Either way you have to believe and it doesn't sound as if you quite do?

That’s hilarious Linda. You know me well 😂😂😂 I’ll send off an application tomorrow and if I get lucky I’ll just “see how it goes” 😂

😀 Fabulous! Good luck.
