In other news, Nic suggested that him and I have a crack at the Great North Walk through-run record during the summer holidays. 250km in 66:36 is the goal, no disrespect to the boys at ultra168, but that is pretty soft. If we do the first 100km in 16 hours, have a four-hour sleep, the next 100 in 20 hours, have a two-hour sleep and then do the final 50km in 12 hours that will bring us home in 54 hours. It’s doable.
