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.
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.
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.
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?
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.
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....

Great things are done when men and mountains meet.
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.
