I'd do it again if I wasn't training for the Giant's Head. I notice however they're promising technical t-shirts again! Hope they're lovely, good luck to whoever is doing it.

I'm at endure 24 so won't be there. I have got Trail Marathon Wales and Giant's Head (or 'Giant Knob' as Disco Dean insists on calling it) on the following two weeks so I will be getting a fair few hills in!

I plan to be there, haven't really trained properly for it, so will be a long hard training run I expect! Did I read right that there are only 3 water stops? Do people use a hydration pack?

Hmm, will re-read the info tonight! Still 4 stops over 26 miles isn't a lot with heat and hills. Will see if I can get away with just a hand held. Does anyone have a profile, so I can see where the hills are across the course?
