Almería half marathon. 30th January 2006 - Seafront Plodder - 27-01-2005
Looks like I'm in twice!!
Almería half marathon. 30th January 2006 - Sweder - 27-01-2005
I checked via Antonio's suggestion (through the homepage by surname) and there I am. Cool . . .

Bad luck SP - looks like you'll be doing the race twice then.
Almería half marathon. 30th January 2006 - Seafront Plodder - 27-01-2005
Along with Suzie as she's in twice too.
Almería half marathon. 30th January 2006 - Antonio247 - 27-01-2005
I´m sorry about all this fuss. By the way, what family name did you give for Suzie?
I´ve already booked a table for Sunday at 2.30 pm at Restaurante Club de Mar to celebrate our gathering and race. It´s a nice place near the sea. If you prefer another option, it can be cancelled.
Best of luck, everybody.

Hi again
You would have seen the payment screen. Maybe it only appears for fully authenticated Europhiles.... And even then only on a strictly ephemeral basis outside the EuroZone.

Suzie is on the list as Ms Suzie Suzie. Two names, just one registration. Tranquilo, hombres. No hay problema.
Almería half marathon. 30th January 2006 - Antonio247 - 27-01-2005
Gracias, Nigel. No hay problema. No problem. Suzie´s entry is confirmed and to be confirmed like Andy SP´s. That´s good. I thought you had entered her twice by credit card. This way it isn´t paid twice.
Hasta pronto. See you soon.

Good idea about the restaurant, Antonio. Sounds like they should sell decent fish and chips.
Almería half marathon. 30th January 2006 - Antonio247 - 27-01-2005
Yes, I think you won´t miss your fish and chips there, Andy. But fried with olive oil.
Sorry again for all this fuss with the entries. It´s sad all this to be under 800 runners on Sunday.
Buenas noches a todos. Hasta mañana.
Good night, everybody. See you tomorrow.

Well, the blue and red lines to show the course were painted last night. It smells of half marathon. A temperature indicator showed 6º C at 9 am but it marked 12º at 3 pm. The weather forecast is a slight rising in the temperatures.
I´m looking forward to meeting you at the airport tomorrow afternoon. You´re coming with Easyjet, aren´t you?
Have a safe journey tomorrow! Best of luck!

Although (as a poster) I've been absent from the forum recently, I have been reading your posts on this thread. Must say that I'm feeling a bit jealous of you all now.
Hopefully I'll be able to join up with the RC team at a race in the UK later this year. How about Bristol in Sep/Oct?
Anyway, all the best for Almeria! I'm looking forward to the report and the photos.

Hi Griff, good to hear from you.
I'm sure we'll be repeating the exercise again. i can't speak for anyone else but I'll pencil in the Bristol Half as a possibility.
Cheers
Andy

Pretty cool but sunny seems to be the forecast for Sunday in Almeria. Good running weather.

Must cut down on my sugar/ caffine loading.
Almería half marathon. 30th January 2006 - El Gordo - 28-01-2005
Griff - Bristol is October 2nd. I'll see how I go. Week prior is Windsor Half and the weekend before that is New Forest Half. I'd like to do all 3 (but won't). Will make a decision nearer the time. In the meantime, I still hope to get over to the Hogweed Half - work permitting.
OK - time to start packing....
Almería half marathon. 30th January 2006 - Antonio247 - 28-01-2005
Don´t forget your running shoes, RC team!
Rest well and have a safe journey!
Hasta mañana See you tomorrow

Cheers Antonio.
Passport packed, shoes packed (complete with plenty of dried English mud)
Crank up the sunshine coz here we come!
Almería half marathon. 30th January 2006 - Riazor Blue - 28-01-2005
I'm jealous too Griff.
Seriously, I hope everyone has a great time. Antonio, i think you are a star for organizing it all - perhaps you could organize tours for the Shop...
I read that we are expecting more cold weather on Sunday, but of course, cold in Spain does not equal cold in the UK.
I 'm expecting to see some great reports next week.
Tened suerte y disfutad el fin de semana.
Almería half marathon. 30th January 2006 - Antonio247 - 28-01-2005
Let´s hope it is sunny at the weekend, Sweder. Anyway,even if it is a bit colder than usual, I´m sure we´ll have a good time here all together.
Well, Brian, we can organise another trip to La Coruña, take part at another race and see your running shop. I could go to London and from there to La Coruña. It´d be cheaper than using Iberia from Almería to Madrid and then to Santiago de Compostela or La Coruña.
We´ll miss you here at the half marathon, Brian. It´s a pity you couldn´t come. Besides, crossing the whole country with the snow that has fallen in northen Spain especially would have been really tough.
Regards
Antonio
