Like on the same day?
Same weekend?
Or consecutive weekends?

Surely same day is just doing a full IM…

That’s like saying two halves of a biscuit is a full biscuit?

Nah.

It’s a broken biscuit innit

But if you eat both parts of the broken biscuit in one go, then you’ve eaten a whole biscuit.

No.
You’ve eaten two biscuit halves.
Who knows if they’re from the same original biscuit :man_shrugging:t4:

:exploding_head:

Two weekends.

It’s flatAF if I go west to Oulton Park, Delamere then back via Crewe and Middlewich.

Well, it’s slightly downhill there, but the prevailing wind “pushes” you back the “uphill” way home.

Road surfaces are abysmal though, so that’s worth at least 10kmh without a crowd or Tailwind, right :rofl::see_no_evil:

I know those roads …

They were better than the IMUK course ( now) but that was 10-12 years ago?!

I was thinking 11

Tailwind all the way for me ( plus other stuff ) so can’t comment!

You kidding?
Seen the latest nutrition question?
Literally every answer is TAILWIND :rofl::rofl::rofl:

I can only speak as I find.

I thrive on it.

Done all my 70.3”s on it, I don’t need the 3 scoops per hour, more like 2, I might have the odd jel or banana as well, but I 1000% know I could do Bolton on it, with nothing else.

Did a 6 hour turbo on it av hr 146 ish, with a fan nearly 5000 cals on just tailwind.

No gi.

If it’s hot the electrolytes in it need topping up with sis tablets etc.

I use 2 scoops tw one scoop Demerara sugar ( £1.50 for 700? Grammes at Tesco ) this works even better and reduces the cost.

I quite like Maurten and some of the other gels but I really don’t need them.

I bought a job lot of gels (250?) and gave most away, IMJ and proud on this one!

It’s not the answer for everyone though…!

I’m pretty sure @Mungo2 is only here as a spy for IMJ; he’s completely assimilated.

Yes, and he thinks because he talks so openly about it, he can ‘hide in plain sight’. But we’re onto him, and his Scientoloigal* IMJ leanings :shushing_face:

  • made-up word.

Can’t be an IMJ spy because he doesn’t need the crowd to get round.

I knew I shouldn’t have joined IMJUK. I have spent hours today worked up about what a bunch of pussies there are on there!

What’s wrong with me!? :rofl:

You don’t have to do training
You don’t have to make an effort
It’s not hard

I mean, why enter for the love of God?
