Pre-race Nerves

Well, it's the night before the big run. I'm just getting some pasta and chicken down me before the drive up to the Lakes. The forecast isn't great. There's a front moving in and it should arrive in Coniston about 7.30 tomorrow night - just in time for the start of the race.

The plan goes like this:

Arrive Coniston tonight
Take 2 Nitol
Go to bed
Get up tomorrow lunchtime
Eat
Check in
Sleep
Start and keep on going until I collapse or get back to Coniston (some time around 3 am Sunday morning).

Thanks for all the support and encouragement. Keep the donations to www.justgiving.com/runbazrun coming.

Baz.

  1. Hi Baz, I found your blog whilst scouring the web - my brother and I (aged 28 and 18) are running the lakes this year - and were after some first hand advice - especially on kit (what bag size L's did you use, how much food/fluid etc) and any training advice really.
    Great blog BTW - we are using twitter this year to enable people to follow our progress. If you have the time could you send us a direct message on twitter @teamsimpkins? thanks
