All packed and as ready as I will ever be

About to head to bed and try and get some sleep before my alarm goes off at silly o’clock in the morning.

I have checked and double checked my kit and my trail pack is now loaded with everything other than my soft flasks which I will fill in the morning. It felt strange packing a warm top to go for a run but I have no idea of how slow I am going to be so may get cold. I also feel the need to carry my she-wee, wipes and nappy sacks (for the wipes) as the aid station with toilets is 14 miles into the route! Survival blanket, first aid kit and whistle just make sense to me and then my gels and fuel will hopefully get me to the end :)

See you in the other side!

Good luck to you tiggs1 for your run tomorrow, I notice that you are a member of the Healthunlocked GB team for the Vitality World Running Cup, I am also in that team, once again I wish you all the very best for tomorrow.

Gosh Tiggs, and there’s me feeling nervous about a relatively flat HM on paved roads next week! 😅

You’re amazing, you’ll smash the run. Have a bunch of fun, good luck and please report back. I can’t wait to hear how you get on. 😀
