You won't be saying that if you don't complete it. As I WILL be invoicing you to recoup my £10....plus gift-aid.
It's OK, if I don't complete it I'll lie about completing it. Anyway, no refunds, you should have read the T&Cs.

Interesting this. In theory then for people whose feet get too hot as minimal a shoe as possible would help?
So Fell shoes then?
I dunno, I know little about these things 🙂 I was thinking perhaps of something made entirely of very thin mesh..?
Obviously I expect to finish hours after 14 year olds wearing car tyre sandals.
MG, my inov8's are pretty light and meshy
Are there decent running sandals and do people use them to good effect?

T&Cs are no match for my pursuit of justice, Dave.

Interesting, but not too different to a pair of girly sandals...?
So anyway..... up to £643
Any ex-biffers yet to cough up?

You are right. Ignore them.
Done, still a biffer though.
Right gonna set myself a challenge based on the back of this:
£10 for every for every 1 lb I loose between now and 23rd June: 😐
Got 3 stone to drop! (£30 downpayment sent)
Wow, thanks Tiger.
It's possible to lose a stone a month if you're starting from the 'portly' side of the spectrum!

Not ignoring, simply commenting 🙂
In other diet news, pigged out yesterday evening, couldn't stop eating carby things.. very bad... However this morning I was a smidge lighter than yesterday and I feel better!

No idea if people use em to good effect though.
So........ in a recent development, 4 weeks before the run, I have to have 3 weeks off running as my calf is borked. It became a crumpled knot on an easy trail run last week.
Choice is run unfit and uninjured or fit and injured. Choosing unfit and uninjured.
Bugger.
OK to ride and having nasty treatment tomorrow.
4 weeks isn't long enough to lose much... is it?
I remember doing nothing for 4 weeks then a Polaris, had one of the best rides of my life. Relatively, of course.. that was before I was training properly.
Not to be negative, but if your calf is knackered on an easy trail run..........etc etc etc
Are burritos in? I'm just about to waddle over and have one.

No, it's an iRelated question so **** off smartarse. And, I'm not your "bro". Is your surname Oliver?
And, I'm not your "bro"
Apologies. Corrected.
Thanks, you prat.
Prat?
You sure know how to hurt a brother.
OK, so major plan borking has happened.
3 weeks ago I got a huge knot in my right calf. Couldn't walk without pain. Saw injury specialist in Geneva who prescribed 3 weeks no running and totally ruled out the ultra. I thought I'd give it 2 weeks and see.
Unfortunately a week before the run, there is no way I can run 10k let alone 100k.
Plan B, to serve suffering on behalf of leukaemia research is to do Mayhem, then an Ultra in Mongolia in early Aug, then SITS solo. The calf is fine when cycling, it's walking and running that hurt.
I hope this is acceptable to the masses.
I'm absolutely gutted about not being able to do Kenya, I'd trained for 6 months.
Bummer!
Mayhem solo?
Can't get into it solo, in Chipps team as Enrico Gonzales. It's a start.
Did you hear it's going to be a triathlon this year?
Swim, bike and run all in the same lap....
Is that before or after the mud wrestling?
Sorry to hear about the leg Dave 🙁
What exactly is your injury iDave?
SbZ, my right calf suffers from 24 hr fasciculation - which freaks people out. It cramps on command, and has a tendency to get pretty severe knots. This time it knotted worse than ever, to the extent that I couldn't walk except using the side of my heel. The physio in Geneva tried ART, she couldn't release it. It's had massage, compression, anti-inflammatories, basically it's had everything thrown at it. 2.5 weeks in I can walk without pain now.
It's fine riding, but I forefoot plant when running and that's not helpful when the calf is in this state.
Any insight would be welcome.
