The day before

Tomorrows the big day in kielder and I've done all I can now. My preparations have probably been the best I've had before a big race. I haven't had any serious injuries, I've got my long runs in and I'm feeling pretty good (apart from it being Saturday night and not being able to have a drink lol).
The weathers not looking too great, but that's out of my control so I'm just going to toe the line and do the best I can.
My goal is to get round in 3-20 which means going through halfway in 1-40. This is what I went through last year but ended up struggling in the second half and having a massive positive split ending up with 3-34.
This year I've got a few more gels and am hopefully a bit wiser and stronger so I'll just have to see how it goes!!
Post race report to follow.....
