I appear better suited to multi day stuff it seems. I got stronger each col we did with no residual leg pain whereas the guys who got lots of sleep and didn't drink a case of beers each night got slower.. Don't ask me?!
Anyway I'm doing this bastard next year. I might not be getting gold but I'm gonna have a good crack at spanking it (ok, finishing alive).
climbing those little cols was great fun and I want some more. Can fatty do it?
How much weight can I lose without losing power? How much can I lose at all? Where can I train for hour+ climbs in flat arse lundumb? Is it worth heading north for a few weekends? How do you even enter? Ooh lots of questions...
When I get home google will feel my caress once more..
