    I'm planning to do it to get a t-shirt that I can swan around the gym looking smug in.

    I've done the 50 miler a few times, so I'm going for the 110 miler this time round.

    A premium event then! Good to see that they're not sparing any expense and promoting healthy eating. What flavour by the way?

    IIRC there was a check box for the t-shirt and you had to cough up for it. Possibly they've stopped doing them - don't know.

    I never really knew what to do with the (cheapo) medals; left them lying around for ages then binned them - bit like Pot Noodles.

    I had my minions search for info on t-shirts and they found this in the FAQs:
    ... T-shirts will be available early summertime. They can then also be purchased via your online account...

    Couldn't find anything for this year, but there was one last year:
