What do forumites recommend in the way of emergency food for the longer races such as Wasdale, Borrowdale,etc.?
I don't normally carry very much, e.g. a satsuma, but figure the kit checks could be quite stringent at Borrowdale on Saturday.

Gels never really work for me . I find bog standard kendal mint cake gives me a real energy boost when I'm flagging , but , it does get a bit sickly .
Last Lakeland race I did, I took a packet of cheese and pickle sandwiches along with a banana, chocolate and gels. Mind you, I don't whizz round, I like to make a proper day out of it.
