Training is great fun, the people you meet are great, and then of course there is the race itself!<br /><br />Thanks for the top 5 list.

I thought i would tell you the top 5 items on my packing list for when i'm travelling just in case it rings a few bells for you - EAR PLUGS:stops some of that snoring noise from fellow travellers (but not sure how much snoring you will hear above the waves). MARMITE - makes anything taste better and lasts for ages, BABY WIPES - a necessity not a luxury - go for the thickest then you only need one at a time, SLEEPING BAG LINER - without one your bag becomes rank after a very short time and never recovers, AUDIO BOOKS ON MY IPOD - one book is never enough for me so this is the best way to carry tons of books.<br /><br />Have a great time - i've bookmarked a few blogs and can't wait till you all get going.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3055024000554892010.post-14888817697124242252009-06-08T08:22:43.914-07:002009-06-08T08:22:43.914-07:00You'd be an awesome motivator!
