You'll still need to count your laps a la LIM - otherwise you won't know when you've finished. I don't know how easy it's going to be to shout that people have finished.

Registration is now OPEN!!! Cool

Goodwood Roller Marathon has always been run for charity and this year is be no different. Supporting The NCYPE (The National Centre for Young People with Epilepsy) we encourage everyone to get sponsored for this event, especially if you have never done a marathon before.

The key thing this year is advanced registration which should hopefully keep costs down both for us as well as you. You can register online as well as by post, the sooner you register and pay the cheaper it is. This year we have microchip timing of the laps as well as a medal for you to take home and keep. More details on the website.

Historically we have had lots of people sign up that are not online. If you know of any people/groups such as this then please print out the registration and sponsorship forms from the website and pass them on. There will be a poster available soon for you to print out as well.

Top post updated with this new info Smile

I've just registered. Cheap as chips if you book now. Think I may have been a bit rude about Lemming on the registration form tho'. Forgot my Championchip number, will mail you with it when I find the darn thing.

Damn, you have picked up on the one thing we havent fully confirmed yet! Embarassed

The race time will probably either be 11am or 12noon to give you London lot a chance to get down here. Seeing as it's been raised, does anyone have any opinions on the start time? it has been 12noon previous years.

Us speedies don't have a problem with early starts. I'd check with the Serpie Road lot, I imagine 12pm would be better for them.

Takes a while to get down there so maybe 12 is better....

Gav, there is an aerodrome near there, but you don't need to fly. One of us will drive you.

All registered. I would be up for Noon. It allows plenty of warm up time.
