Just read You get given bottles on bike leg and get rid of your old ones.Are they new? what are they branded? Call me northern but id better fit a few more cages then.
Trouble is EP when you DO finish you will be addicted and doing it again anyway I think just about everyone on here started with the I am going to crack it and move on approach see you at IM Nice
I can be one of those when i'm old and knackered and have no kids to destroy my hard work..........
so where is this predicted heatwave........I have miserable damp and foggy weather here.like winter i can't even see the mountains each side of the valley......
I have clothes to dry etc........
and i wanted a quick 2 miler on the bike to check something out on th gears but i can't do that when its wet
Just remembered a quick tale from last yesr thst my brother MK Snail will not mind me recounting
Mile 12? On the run. He absoltely ran out of gas and his bad knee was killing him so he decided to quit ran off the dide of the track took his number off and sat down to watch the cricket match that was going on 20 mins later one of our other buddies saw him and gave him a bit of a "pep" talk he manned up got his head together carried on and finished a very creditable sub 14? For his first IM so moral of the story if you sre gonna bin it keep moving forward get your head reassembled address whats thevproblem and truck on
Nothing is better than eternal hapiness, A cheese sandwich is better than nothing, so a cheese sandwich is better than eternal hapiness. Better put one in my special needs bag for station 5 (80 miles). Thats our pirate station better make that a special needs chest.

K9 by the end I will be singing " I want to sell my bicycle, I want to sell my bike"
They are usually bog standard High 5 ones Bin Man so not worth framing
A freebie is a freebie, gotta make the entry fee back somehow
Rafiki - OK the earings are coming out...
Binman - I am SO going to have that stuck in my head all day now!
Sell it maybe, I felt more like chucking it in the lake after 112 miles!
If they're the same as the half then they do have the outlaw logo on so are a bit nicer than bog standard high5 botyles

I'm planning on Nice regardless of Ethernet result at outlaw. Hopefully I won't have to do out again next year
Im defintiely moving on after Outlaw - regardless of whether or not I finish!
After outlaw i will move on...to IMW.......
but then hopefully I am going back to running and ultras next year......I need a change
I'm going to become a domestic goddess.
That will be an even bigger challenge

I'm already old and knackered Seren
No K9.if you were old you would have a higher number
Just knackered then
.......well I'm knackered but it won't count until i'm old as well which won't be for another 30 or more years
