In reply to Wonrek:
I start with my own Tiffin Cake (enough calories to fuel an elephant), I can stomach that for about 50 miles then no more. I also carry a little crystalised ginger and mint imperials for those times if the stomach starts to get a bit queasy, seem to help. For the first time I tried some chocolate covered coffee beans - good - and second half picked up my salted peanuts which I always have.
I also "grazed" at all the checkpoints, but tend to become more fussy in the latter stages, some highlights for me were:
Cooked breakfast, hardly touched the sides!!
Cheese and pineapple chunks on cocktail sticks - really bizzare - but went down well.
Bacon sandwich.
Near the end checkpoints there was a bowl of cold pasta with fresh veg and mayo in (if memory serves me right), that was lovely and I could have eaten more.
I always like the marmite crackers, I had yours!!!
I ate right through with no problems, but god knows what my stomach thought of the combinations.
No more planned events for me now, once the weather settles I pack my rucksack and tent and head North from home to complete my remaining 140 miles of Cambrian Way. Then decide what next.
