Seems to have settled right down. Put in a couple of reasonable efforts although it was a gentle ride overall. Main effort was a long stretch that started as a bit of flat with bumps to contend with, then downhill, and at the start of it my mate says "there's no way you'll drop me on this bit", so I got on the tri bars and dropped him. Think I was waiting at the bottom for about 2 minutes.
Just focus on getting to Sunday in the best health possible mate. Sure Horse and Duda will do a grand job leaving you as much time as possible to get round the run
Yeah mate, I've got all my fingers crossed that the antibiotics work soon but like you say Horse and Duda will leave me plenty of time to walk the marathon if I have to.
Hey, will see you all at the weekend. I wish everyone the best of luck and I hope its not as hot as it has been this week! Feels like it came round really quickly this year...
I'm in the process of packing. I've lost all enthusiasm for packing. My actual camping gear is in the car, the bike rack is mounted to the towbar, track pump etc is in the car. Just need to pack my clothes, bike kit, and then put the bike on in the morning.
Looking forward to it though, just can't be arsed!
car packed, quick meeting, then down to HP. Looking forward to meeting you all, mine will be the ORANGE tent hailing back to the times went tent were tents and not living systems
See you all tomorrow - we're coming up tomorrow straight to Future Outlaw, but then we'll wander over to the campsite and set up after. Have a safe journey up, all.
Are we in any particular area of the campsite, or is it just "wander around until you see the flags"?

How's the cough mate ?, I'm on antibiotics now so should be good by the weekend.

Zoe, it will be a pleasure to run with you again.
I've trimmed my beard right down from the full Amish and shaved my head (baldy!)....It must be race week!
Hair cropped short and beard gone. Armpits shaved. Minimal gains
Who knows, with these marginal gain Jan Frodeno's IM record could be very short lived!

Pull your finger out man.
I'm pretty much done. Just need to put the bike on the rack in the morning and head off

on the left, about half way down.... it'll be obvious!
I'll be driving up tomorrow morning but will be sure to pop by to say hello. Getting excited, but nowhere near ready and still everything to pack.
Will be trying to get there for 2:00pm briefing, see you all at the campsite!
Stay safe and race like champs
Changed entry to relay (due to the shoulder issue) and am doing the bike and run. Hopefully meet some of you over the weekend!
Thanks mate
Whether you're racing or supporting, have fun and dbs
To all runners and racers tomorrow at Outlaw (and any elsewhere) , race well and do endeavour to remain on the respectable side of being shit
