Three Peaks Fell Race

[stevefoster]

C u on Saturday

See you there Manhar, hope your fit soon mate, judging by your avatar you like this race

[skennaugh]

Only 23 miles! Drink? I've been told the bits between hills is "a nice jog"

[skennaugh]

I can't sleep!

how do you label your drink - put it in a carrier bag (say with some jelly babies)? or what?

Make the number really obvious on your water bottle and tape a jel/enegy bar etc to it. bottles are laid out in number order so they are easier to find.

If you use a carrier bear in mind that you have to dispose of it before setting off up the next hill.

There is water on route elsewhere if I remember, I end up giving my bottle away on the descent of Inglebugger because I'd drunk too much.

Ribblehead, just before Hill Inn and Sulber Nick iirc

I'm going through my usual pre-big race cycle of excitement and utter panic

just made it last year with 10mins to spare, it was tempting to stop there, knowing that a bus was arriving shortly eh.
No sleep, carbed up, tensed up... must relax...Argh!
