Looking to do the Ditchling Devil faster than normal (for me anyway) and with less time stopped. Not trying out the gel/energy-drink only smashfest yet though.
Will be starting at 8.30am as I'm helping out at the start. Feeding on the move (flapjacks, pastries, gels) and short stops at the real controls (<10 mins Highbrook, <15 minutes Upper Beeding, <20 minutes Chiddingfold) and no stops at the info controls, plus my usual half way snack top up; the Saino's half way down Carden Ave in Brighton as you drop down from Ditchling.
So hoping for 6pm finish (under 9 and a half hours with less than an hour stopped).
Hope the cafe in Richmond Park sells beer.
