LogicScience

Delighted to discover my login to the forum still works I signed up to Beachy Head a couple of years ago and never made it to the start line... Trying again this year and started training....Determined!

Anyone else?

Yes me! Wondering what wear top wise, shoe wise right now! Any advice anyone?

Looks like it may be mild weather, 14ish, but can be windy down there so I'd advise a Longsleeve T + vest (you can always roll yr sleeves up if it gets too warm). Shoes - ordinary trainers should be fine, mainly on gravelly/chalk paths and what bits of grassland you do get are well-drained!!!, because they're over the 7 Sisters hills.

Unless you're superfit, i.e. a sub 3 marathoner, I would advise start walking the ups early, there's an awful lot of them - Good Luck and Enjoy
