OMG this is gona be tough.

[Bobbie En Tejas]

Are you going to run it then, D.A.? If so, good for you. Sounds like a great day tomorrow. Hope to see lots of pics.

[Bobbie En Tejas]

Is it possible to turn the camera towards low askomil to watch the runners? Not sure I'll be up at that ungodly hour (I am 6 hours behind), but would watch if I am, and others might find it interesting.

I would say "break a leg" to the runners, which usually means "good luck," but I think I better pass on that phrase and just say "good luck."

Oh dear, seems to be total white out sun glare on the webcam just now.......but that means it is a perfect day for the race . I'm sure Davy will fix the camera. I think the start of the race will show up on screen, maybe even the finish line too.

Just away out to get on with my work then into town to assist.

Hope the people of Campbeltown and area come out to support the event.
The organisers have put in some mighty amount of work.

Been up since the back of six. Long wait 'til race time. My immediate thoughts are that I should have done more training Banana, tea and jammy toast for breakfast. Raining now, so hope that goes off before the start. Just have to get through about an hour and three quarters of torture and then the party can begin

Awww, what a cutie plums! (Does that make daddy the cutie prune?) By the look on his face, do you think he thought he was going to have to run it? I imagine there were a few more with that same look.

4th, try 75% first, and if it is still too big, do 75% again. That should be sufficient.
