Maybe part of my issue is I rinse them out then store them in the freezer!
His hairy mate must be sweating like a yak on a 4hr hike
My mate Craig has had to pull out of SDW100, heās had some nasty calf pain that he just couldnāt shake. ![]()
Iāll talk him into NC110 ![]()
Good luck @p00key
Is the tracker link up yet?
I love the passion that comes across whenever Bruce talks about Comrades. Thanks for the link. Iām also pleased to see that the race will be on YouTube this year - although Iām sad that the cut-offs will probably seem even more diluted with the additional start wave timings this year.
Yes I have a date with my couch on Sunday. Iām also intrigued about the wave start. I think itās less necessary for an Up run but itās no surprise itās come in.
James Ellson read an email from a guy called āNickā (didnāt catch the last name) and I think heās finished the race 23 times and a couple of DNFs. Nearly all within 20mins of cut off.
One change I think they made last year was to do away with the interim āhuman chainā barriers. Jamie said people were allowed to carry on.
Got a mate doing summer spine starting this weekend. Itās not appealing to me, put it that way! ![]()
I didnāt think the coverage on the Winter version was that good this year. I missed Will and the regulars.
I listened to a podcast from a finisher of the Arctic version. ![]()
Is that because your back?
Iāll get my coat.
Wahey!

(itās the cost and kit list more than anything!!!)
The kit list makes Arc look like a ākeys and phoneā job!
No 1158 - off in the first wave, which means I will have more daylight hours..
I just want to finish - definitely stronger and lighter than 2 years ago ( and no concussion this time
) . Conditions look good - Need to make sure I donāt start fast ( not sure if I am even capable of that) but notice my hr seems to shoot up to 170 for the first mile or so which makes me a bit paranoid.
Good luck @p00key , been pissing down all day here, so trails should be a bit softer on the top. Watch that chalk if itās wet!
I noticed Nicole Bitter was on the start list ( wife of Zach Bitter) We ended up spending a day together when she DNS and I DNFād at Ultra trail Cape Town. Planning on saying hello to her, hopefully she will remember me or I will look like a right dick.
Good luck ![]()
