The Druid Challenge 2012 - Day 1

Extreme Energy are delighted to announce the 4th  “Druid Challenge” a multistage race along the oldest roadway in the UK, dating back to 3000BC.
The route follows the Ridgeway path from Ivinghoe Beacon in Buckinghamshire to Overton, just North of Barbury Castle near Swindon in Wiltshire. 


It's 7:15am and in about 30 mins we'll be leaving for Ivinhoe, the start for today. at 11:00am the race starts and then it's 29 miles (the longest distance I will ever have run!) until we reach Watlington, our home for the night. Already had one cock-up this morning as I accidently set my alarm for 5:50 not 6:50 - idiot!

84 miles of muddy exhaustion ahead, I'm a bit nervous!
