finally got round to booking the NI-WILD Wine Bags in, now what sort of training should i be doing? 2 or 3 packets of Jaffa cakes a day  :D

Just drink as much tonic as possible the night before the race and you'll be fine.

weel the forecast looks good for a BBQ  ;D

Quote
Sunday:

The dry weather will continue and after a rather cloudy start, some bright or sunny spells will develop during the day. Light winds. Maximum temperature 16 °C.

I was thinking, if i wrap myself up in cling film it would stop me getting all muddy  ;)

(i've seen it done with land rovers  :o )

Quote
The key timings for the day are as follows:
10:00 Registration opens*
12:00 Registration closes
12:30 Warm up
13:00 Race starts

i aim to be there for about 11am (ish)

We did it  ;D

But that was one seriously muddy course, Lenny should have some good pics.

I'm sitting in the bath now letting the mud soften before I "try" to shower it off, already had a quick solar shower after the event, a hose down in the garden, and still covered in it, picking blobs of mud from EVERY nook and cranny, well at least I hope its mud  :o

I'll be having nightmares about those camel humps for weeks, still keen to do it next year though!
