Thanks for the advice both @Tenderloin
Eating is a good point, obviously hydrate but hadn't even considered other fuelling.
Yeah, not aiming for a time (not a race) and trying to not pressure myself too much to finish either but I definitely don't want to start it with the idea of bailing in my head.
Plan would be, low pressure, pace it nice n easy & to try and enjoy it (including the scenery / terrain).

Many many variables here, most would say you need to build by 10% a week or risk injury etc! But we're not talking massive distances here, so long as you don't mind being a bit sore the next day, take it easy on the pace, walk if you need a rest and are ok with making sure you eat and drink a bit on the run you'll be fine given is still LDN you are hardly going to be remote and stranded if you do need to bin it off! YMMV!
