Not much to say really, but I have been getting out and about recently in a desperate attempt to not be extremely rubbish come October 30th. So far, it’s not working – I’m now just tired and extremely rubbish!
In addition to the usual Blencathra’s and road runs, I managed a couple of longer runs last week. Three and a half hours or so ’round the Haweswater Horseshoe, and four hours or so High Row/Helvellyn/Glencoyne. All sounds good, but it doesn’t even add up to Day 1 yet.
No pics either I’m afraid, having temporarily misplaced my camera. ‘Tis relocated though, so hopefully get some nice shots of bog over the next few weeks…
To summarise – I must do more, for longer, with more ascent, and over worse terrain.
In conclusion – oh dear.
Don’t worry Jon. You’ll be ok.
And don’t forget to have lots of rest days as well.
Well it sounds good to me – I’d be lucky to walk that far!
So, I’ve had a look at the OMM Class A start list and with a quick glance I can see at least three teams I’ll be watching closely: the Dearden, the Stevens, and the Roberts teams…
