  • Little update to this:

    1. Apricot and cashew mix = was tasty and nice to have solid food along.
    2. Carrying 500ml water = could drink double this. Tiring to grip a bidon for so long.
    3. Slowing down pace by 20%. = Really tricky to force this, feels sluggish/boring and not natural, but certainly conserves energy and overall probably enjoy the long run more.

    Yesterday's long run was 3.30 hr total and included lots of little breaks, totalled about 23 miles. Going slower in the week has added more energy to the Sunday long run. Next challenge is with carrying 1kg of food/water. I'm going to look into vests/bum bag/belt things, but it isn't a world I'm familiar with. Thanks again for the advice folks.
