Rumour has it that the utmb-ers are off to do 100k ccc course starting at 10am. No word from Binks other than hungover facebook updates...

Opps. Another text saying they re feeling like shit. I guess with the text about the re arranged race coming at 2am a beer or two may have been consumed .

Great that some can do ccc, wonder how they choose!

Not a good way to be starting 100km though after a very broken night of sleep and prob not much sleep the night before either

I looked at ccc and thought even that was too tough, will be very interested to hear what it is liked. Looking at the profile and stats I think it will be like doing davos 78km then doing the mountain again!

I've no idea how they chose... from what I can gather they texted everyone at 5am or something silly with the offer of CCC to see who would turn up...

Binks has texted me to say "First cheese stop :) " so he seems happy... is cheese good for a hangover?

Some of the guys I know (suspect the sensible ones that didn't drink) seem to be storming it (Rob Westaway & Dan de Belder). Oli Sinclair is behind those guys, and bringing up the rear is Binks and Drew...

Is there anyone else to be following out there? Mimi isn't running...
