Time to revive this thread. There seems to be reasonable enthusiasm for another trip, but we just need to decide where.
Of the races that have been mentioned so far we only really have Almeria (29 Jan) that fits the bill of a half marathon in Jan or Feb.
The Vigo-Baiona half marathon was mentioned. Sounds good, though the date (end of March or early April) would clash with the London Marathon which some are doing, and other events. March and April are frantic months for UK running. Every weekend there are several enticing races. Then after April it starts to get warm, hence the thought that January or February might be best.
So, what are our realistic options? I'd be happy to go back to Almeria, and it's good to have Antonio around to help arrange things. The only negative for me is just that I like to see different places, but maybe that's no big deal.
I've tried searching for races in Spain for next year. Here are some useful links:
List of Jan-May races (2005)
There's Torremolinos 6 Feb
Orihuela (near Alicante) Half in mid-Feb
Getafe Half (Madrid, I think) - same day as Almeria
So there are a few ideas to start. We could also think about somewhere other than Spain of course.
Any thoughts?
