Even as I type I'm seeing serious flaws in this game plan .
I'll maybe see you at start Stolly, I aint gonna try to keep up with you at that pace, not with my track record.. cramp in every race.
I'm hoping that since I switched my drink from the expensive 'anti-cramp' solution to a mixture of orange juice, salt and water, I will be able to fend cramp off for longer. The first time I stopped using it was on our 3ppp reccie back in feb, I haven't had an inkling of cramp since but I know it will probably be due on race day. I hope to be somewhere around 4.30 -4.45 ish all being well.Good luck mate!
