...them a lot, like minded people , well organised and that Mike is a top bloke very helpful and down to earth.

I'm gonna miss the first one but I'll do the rest, maybe even Austria.

Even Mrs.P can have a go this year at the 25km.

David, have you done the Austrian event?

If so is it suitably tough?

no, not yet, but people i've spoken to who've done it have said it's the toughest event they've ever done, and they are well fit

the 100km option would probably be ok, but you'd have to try the full 220km if you're going all that way

yeah, it normally takes me 6 hours to do a 100km, so 17 probably, crazily, sounds about right. i think they probably set of at dawn

bad goisern is the setting
