Decision Time Soon...
I may have to make a decision soon. As you know, I've gone and entered the Robin Hood Marathon in September- and was also considering tackling the Bullock Smithy, although it's the weekend before the Robin Hood.
But I've seen another Ultra I quite fancy the sound of... it's called the Druid's Challenge, and is a 3 day ultra event along the Ridgeway- the complete 85 mile length of the Ridgeway trail. It takes place in early November and food and accommodation (floor space!) are included... and I really want to do it!
I am wondering whether to go for this instead of the BS and stage my BS rematch next year? I am a bit skint so have to limit the amount I splash on races as it's a dear do... and of course there's the Beacons Ultra in December I need to enter very soon in case it sells out- decisions decisions...

Looks a good one.
As an alternative, what about the Longmynd Hike in October ?
50miles in 24 hours around the South Shropshire countryside.
I quite fancy doing all three, but over the space of 3 years as it would take some time to do the training.
But the Druid Walk is going to be bookmarked for future reference.

Hi, the Longmynd Hike looks a good one to do too, that's the trouble- there are so many races to do!
It can be difficult fitting them all in and training as well as expensive- although the Druid Challenge looks quite reasonable.
I have entered the Beacons Ultra in December too- 46 miles I think.
I am struggling to motivate myself this week- feeling very tired! How's your training going?
