Boab Apr 2016 9:06pm, 12 Apr 2016 8,065 posts	0 Boab I'm afraid I am out of the Fling this year. I'm just not recovering fast enough from the 100km and I have some plans for the later in the year that I don't want to jeopardise. I'm sad about it, but relieved that I don't have to put my body through it again so soon. I'm carrying a couple of small niggles (new ones) as well, so I need to manage them. Will try to get up though as it looks very exciting at the pointy end.
