I have found a race with just 23 starters so far - but it’s a 100 miler where there is only 1 checkpoint and you have to be completely self-sufficient (including water!). Entry fee is cheap though...
The Plain 100 is the little race that I found in Washington State...
I’m doing the Centurion 50 miler this week...
Mac, you have me drooling at the thought of a wine tour post coupleofseas I have unfinished business there - wonder if Dannirr has his eye on it too? I need to visit this sign (I've been given a sign he said holding up a discarded sandal)
Although 2O is a neat piece of marketing, the above sign is nowhere near False Bay
So the top right aquatic label on the representation below is a bit of false (snigger) geographic poetry!
Great profile though
And scenery
Promotional poster
In quiz action
Great photos Lowrez, but what have you done to Jenny the Vixen Ryan? She's showing a bit of underwear!!! Hope nobody was drunk watching you in action in your Rubiks cube quiz
I better go for a run too - was lazy yesterday when just as I was contemplating stepping out some food tempted me away from it! I'm so weak
Glad my meanderings are entertaining you Marty
Well done you. Thats fantastic running. Are the stepping stones at Boxhill still out of action? I had to use the bridge as apparently one of the stones was overturned.
My sister has just agreed to pick me up from Detling for the virtual Comrades half. Mr SS will drop me off. How much water have you carried with you these past 2 days. Thats the only thing that concerns me. Have been trying to google if theres any shops nearby on route where I can buy some but without success. I have a race vest that takes about 1.5/2 litres in the bladder and another litre in the front. Suppose I could put my bottle belt on too but might feel like a pack horse and unable to move!!
Cike It appears to have GI issues due to the volume of cheese he has consumed, currently in a portaloo at the final support table on Berea he still has plenty of time to finish.
CAR romped home smashing the 10:30 mark and cowrez and Caerphilly formed a cus finishing together, both very pleased to have broken 11 hours.
Iike It is having a hard time with a plague of Ichneumons as he battles towards half way, IcHilly is looking good to break 11 hours with just a couple of ks to go until Dogbane stadium.
Ieter is looking a dead cert for first place, with movement likely to be relaxed in SA before Iike It can make it to the stadium he should be able to hang on for the win. IAR is incredibly consistent again smashing 10:30.
Things have calmed down in the park since last week. Pike It hasn't moved; he's been gorging himself in the incredible Polly Shortbreads. The rest of the gang are not in a rush either loving the the cool Choca Mochas with Fancies on the side.
A whole heap of us legged it after the police arrived and took up refuge in the stadium. Despite forming a pus Pecca and Park couldn't beat 11 hours, they stopped for some Durbanoffe on the way into the stadium but had to wait longer than expected as they had run out of forks.
Everyone is having a great time in the cafe, Sike It unfortunately lost a shoe on the start line and has been prevented from moving on after a crowd of 5,000 disciples picked it up convinced that it is a sign that he is the new messiah, he has managed to turn this to his advantage though and is currently eating egg and spam at their expense, although they are all expecting to be fed too out of this single purchase. The next group are enjoying egg bacon sausage and spam, but Subai didn't fancy the egg so ran on for spam bacon sausage and spam. The next group were absolutely famished so they ran on for the spam spam spam spam spam spam baked beans spam spam spam and spam, although Secca asked for it without the spam but with extra beans. Then we have the high milers deservedly tucking into the thermidor.
Saldstan needs to eat more spam if he is ever going to steal that first place spot off Seter! But who knows how this one might evolve, there are still many spammers out on the course who could pip Seter for the top table.
This will be the longest down run ever with the course spanning 50 billion light years to the edge of the observable universe, I make that 473,036,536,529,050,812,834,856 km or 295,647,835,330,656,509,522,534 miles. Use of worm holes is allowed in order to complete the distance within the 12 hour limit.
Baldstan - Have found the co-op that you mentioned. There also appears to be a co-op a short bit before you get to the M2
Lowrez - You're imagination knows no bounds!!!
