Boston 6 hours on Sunday

I dont run when I should be sleeping, it is wrong and I dont do off road/navigating in the dark. Just imagine how many miles I would do!!! I do like the Ridgeway though and if they floodlit the course I woud do it even if it does mean running when I should be sleeping!

the nice thing is you know what time you wil be done, the annoying thing is I had to estimate how many miles to do the rest of the week to hit my milage target!!

I'm starting midday, too. And despite the only-mobiles-required I'll have my rucksack since I don't have anything smaller to put my phone, map etc in. Trying to keep it light, though...

Don't quote me on this, but you may be required to carry a spaceblanket too!!
I will be at the next CP after Goring (the one with the hotdogs)
Good luck everyone and think of the mud as character building....

Good luck to you all
Remember it is an eating and drinking race as well, get your monies worth from the check points
