Deejay if the distance or climb doesn't get you, the weather might just come along and bite your bum. I know its supposed to rain this week, maybe the first rain in almost 3 weeks, but the weather forecast for next weekend in the Lakes is looking to be warm and sunny - see the next 5 days weather for Coniston (the nearest I could get to Duddon). I can see the last 10 miles of this race being a waterless, sun burnt, heat exhaust-athon.
But it'll still be fun..............

Yeh, that's a concern. I'm reasonably sure legs will last out, they were fine at the end of the Anniversary Waltz and I've done a lot of miles in the hills in my shortlife. I guess I'm just not sure what the rest of the body will need to keep running for the last half dozen miles. Still if I do it it'll be a massive pshy, pysco, err, morale boost! On the other hand if I suffer the shame
of dropping out, well, there's always BEER
Think I'll decide at about 10.59 on Saturday!!! And you're right, whatever happens it will be fun
Hmmmm! Do I detect a chink in Stollys armour, must pack the sun tan lotion, could you carry it for me along with some drink. (water not Guinness)

My plan is as follows,
Sunday
Stowaway in your car and jump ship at Darlington
That just about covers everything, you did ask
Not quite everything, the race is on Saturday,,,,yes,,,,, you are planning an overnight stay, well this is were there is a slight not major (well not for me) flaw in the plan,,,,,,,,, I am travelling back home on the Saturday ,early evening after some sustinence and general banter with the stable and others.
The ball is in your court now, no expletives in your reply if you don't mind.
