Belfast Marathon Challenge 2009

Everyone,
Michael and I had a chat over Christmas and have decided we are going to enter a "Class of 76" relay team in the Belfast Marathon this year, Monday 4 May.
So we're hoping some of you will join the team, otherwise we'll be running a half marathon each!!!
If enough of us are willing to give it a go then we'll maybe enter two or more teams.
We would also like to use the occasion for "Class of 76" to raise some funds for a local charity (we haven't decided which one yet).
There are details of the length of the relay's five stages (varying from 3.5 to 7.1 miles), changeover points and full route map at the following link:
Belfast Marathon stages for the relay teams
We can make use of specially laid on buses to take team members to changeover points or, if any of you are not running and would like to volunteer as helpers to ferry the runners, we may not have to stand around for so long!
We could also decide on a meeting point in Ormeau Park at the end of the race and (if able :-) go for a celebratory drink and bite to eat afterwards!
OK, who's game for it!
