So You Think YOu're Tough Eh??

When Mrs.…. I mean Mr. Marc Campbell told me about the race up Seymour I was overcome with both excitement and nausea, not necessarily in that order. My first thought was..owwwee and then …mmmmm what to wear, or as Dave Howells would say…"sooooo ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh….. whada ya runnin'???"
Well Dave, that's an excellent question. This event begins in The Cove ( sea level) and achieves an altitude of more than 4000 feet by finishing at the peak of Seymour. Hence, you don't need to wear a lot!! If you were to begin with a long sleeve HH LIFA Sport weight, with a pair of ¾ HH LIFA Sport pants and cap it off with a pair of HH LIFA gloves and a LIFA Beanie, I am of the opinion that this would suffice, given pleasant conditions…But remember dress according to the weather and if you plan on stopping or proceeding at a slower pace, then you may want to consider packing a fleece, just in case!!
Remember to give the race organizers a pack with a change of clothes and a few cold ones for the finish, (a cotton hoodie and 6 Slemens traditionally does the trick), and we'll see you at top!!!!!!
YEEEEEEEEEEEEEHHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAA!!!
