Guess it was summer holidays last time + they knew what to do this time since the last one was quite recent...
We're still waiting for the certificate, but my Claim progress at their site says:

Well, I'm humble to all new attempts. I know our route could be completed in around 18 hours flat on a good day... However, I'd be surprised if our record is wiped by anything but an Amersham-Heathrow route!
Good Luck to all of TNT on the charity run!
If you're interested, I could enter your route into my planning software and see my best estimate for it - full confidentiality promised!

Of course it does - unless it happens to be my route already...
No, seriously, I doubt I'll make another attempt in the forseable future - and I certainly would never use anything I didn't come up with on my own!
