1st attempt, but no idea when!

Post by waterloo and city »

Oh yes, I'm planning an attempt at this. :) I would do the CiN one, but I don't think I'll be able to. :( So I'm planning my own run at it. Not for the record though, just for 'fun'. (well, it will be my first run after all! :P )

I have a route (with help from a certain Samantha Cawley! Thank you! :) )

Date I'm unsure of, obviously it'll be a weekday. But seeing as I'm now a student at Cambridge Regional College for 3 days a week plus all the extra work, finding a good day is difficult! So I'm targeting a Christmas period run, more busy yes, but at least then I have a few full weeks at my disposal without any work! :shock: :)

I may also want a running partner or 3, but I'll keep you posted on that. I'm going to ask around a few friends first and see if I can get them in on this... (dream on!)

Now, I've off to learn these irritating door positions! :twisted:

It's getting there, hoping to get a trip to London soon for some 'research'. Still no date as yet, still no actual certainty that it'll go ahead. But hopefully it will!

Good luck!

I wish to make my first attempt sometime in spring 2012. But like you I would only do it for fun. I'd be happy to get to all 270 in one day! Oh, and when you’re doing your research don't get stopped by the police and have to explain what you’re up to, like I did! :D
