LDWA challenge events are one of the best reasons imaginable to become a long distance runner!
Me - 24 miles, 1 flapjack, 1 bottle slimfast. Your run sounds better! Crumble gets my vote every time.
I think I could get into running if it is like this!
You are not supposed to tell people about ldwa food. Just say theyare long tough events. My next one is April cant wait for the cakes.
jumbly- i think i finished in calorie equilibrium!
gaynor- slimfast?! you're not trying hard enough ;)
trio- it's only a matter of time....
ben- oops, i forgot the first rule of ldwa ;) which one are you doing?
and probably all for £4!
Next one is Cerne Giant 30 and then if that goes OK I am also entered in the Wye Forest 50. Not overflowing with confidence at the moment.
uc- £9, plus certificate and badge :)
ben- ooh, exciting! 50m!! eek, just keep thinking, the longer the event, the more cake there'll be. i'm sure you'll be fine :)
Were you not hungry or what on Saturday?! :-P
