Should we try to find Miranda? She told Kurt she entered two years in a row, and we know she is a very fast runner.

Was just about to mention that.

She should be in the lists somewhere and may lead to a clue...

Right, a rundown:

We found this site from a link in The Sentinel on the front page. For all I know it might well have been there yesterday and we all missed it due to the ongoing Asplodey action which was far more interesting at the time.

The site has some helpful tips on marathon running (or Puzzle-marathon if you so choose), information on the 10 different charities you can choose to represent, further info on the marathon itself and finally the small matter of the top 15,000 placings in the regular and 9,000 placings in the Puzzle marathnons...for the past 5 years.

Yup, 120,000 pages of names each of which consists of name, height, age, finishing time and the year they ran. Oh, and it's unsearchable Smile

No, sorry. I thought Kurt had said she ran the past two years, but he actually said,
Quote:
Miranda really is an excellent runner - she's done the Polygon Marathon twice and unusually is a fairly good sprinter as well.
.
Still she probably supported MIND if she really does have Barrows Feld Syndrome. (Kurt told us the was probably some truth in what she said. I'm guessing the truth is her illness, and the marathon.

I think we could quickly rule out the possibility of some code/message/clue/etc hidden in the site, right?.. as this is the legit site for a big marathon, ad in the sentinel,etc...
just tossing some mind junk

You never know. A site that huge, you could hide info on someone's page safe in the knowledge that nobody is going to check every page...
