Thanks for that. I might enter that code into my Garmin and use it for next week's race.
Well done on finding a run with a very low turnout.
Haha
Perfect weekend for me.

Anyone ever attempted to return used trainers due to a possible size issue?
I've started to get blisters which wasn't too much of a bother at first, but my right big toe now has a discoloured nail and is very sore (not sure if its a blister under the nail or just a nail issue), but i'm now thinking I should have gone half a size up, and hopefully that will alleviate the problem.
I've only done about ~150km in these, and do clean them up after every run, so they still look in great condition, but obviously the soles will show a bit of wear. I expect my chances of returning are slim, so considering a bit of sabotage to attempt a refund by way of being 'faulty'!
Great North Run in just under 4 weeks, so really need to get a new pair quickly and break them in, but at £160 for a new pair, dont really want to just write off the old ones.
