I think I'm ready in kit terms, just chuck it all in a box and then pack it after clearing kit inspection. Look forward to seeing you all at Coniston on Friday.

flanker Jul 2017 11:26pm, 25 Jul 2017 17,162 posts	0 flanker See you all Sunday. I'll be doing everything I can to avoid the school once I've got my number and then rock up just before the start. Hate all the fuss, what is one of the worst race briefings ever ("look at your neighbour - one of you won't finish"), and being forced to listen to a thoroughly demotivating wailing of hideous opera! But I am starting And if I get past Pooley Bridge I will be finishing.

Aside from totally messing up the Highland Fling (again) training has exceded expectations. Not injured, never felt fitter and have never put together such a consistent block of training. No excuses.
