Yeah sorry I was not being cocky saying do I need to train for this. Im not taking it likely, what I meant to say was do I need to train specifically ie follow an ultra running plan.
When you say refuel regularly, is the food provided at regular intervals like a typical LDWA event or do we have to look after ourselves?

we have no time for a training plan mate
if it gets heavy i can always get amanda to pick us up , no shame in cutting it short but i think we will be okay.
foodwise we will carry some but im sure there will be loads at the checkpoints mate
it's supplied J but if you look at a post from Ian (FSS) he says get used to eating at the refueling stops as oppose to lugging loads of your own and to be honest that last one we did I made loads and took it along but only ate at the stations!! Kind of didn't bother whilst on the move well except for the date/bon bon mixQuote:

check out there free website , think its fellraces.co.uk
2500ft , 13miles , 11.00am from burbage institute
theres a thread on it in races
I'm thinking about doing this. Jamie we will chat about it next weekend, but food is the key, grab as much as you can and keep going. Don't get pulled in to racing the first 20 miles, just plod at your pace, if you feel good then pickit up a bit, if not just keep going. I bet it's easier than four hours Christmas shopping in 'Meadowhell'
Any one got an idea of what time they will do it in
