Hmmm. That would be an aged blue or a gorgonzola I'd imagine.

Brings tears to my eyes just thinking about it.

I've walked a couple of halves and that was bad enough...

lycra bike pants should stop any chafing.... my brother used to do a lot of cycling and always wore lycra bike pants under his "normal" shorts. The lycra doesn't chafe and no one will see it

They shouldn't slow me down much and they keep it looking authentic

You Are A LEGEND. Massive props to you Allan. I couldn't run 21kms let alone in leathers. Let us know what time you manage to do it in!

Thanks Brett

I'll be doing a video of the run which i'll post on the Nearly There website. I'd be really stoked if i could do it in under 3 hours but i'll also be happy just to finish.
