In reply to Removed Usermrjobs:
> Thanks what would you recommend for nutrition required for that length of route/terrain? Just bars and gells or anything more meaty - like a sandwich?! I'll have a trail backback so planning on taking food out for the day. Have done the section Mousehole to Sennen not long ago which was great and around 15 miles.
We started from the Minack stage and I made sure I was stopping to eat regularly, well I did the first time. Second time I was unsupported so had plenty of food, just noone to nag me to eat. Wheels came off quite quickly!!
I would avoid gels and go sarnies and cold roast spuds etc. Make sure there's enough salt in it all too.
Unfortunately even though I have done loads of ultras nutrition is still the bit I struggle with.....except if I can get hold of fish and chips...!!
I will have a look at the strava trace and post the height gain later....it was loads!!
