Many thanks everyone.

We hope to post updates on the Freespirits Forum at https://www.freespiritsrowing.com/forum ... php?t=4294 if anyone wants the gory details while it is ongoing. It remains to be seen whether it was "brave" or fool hardy

Get the crunchy nut cornflakes and cold milk ready. They are the power food for anything that's going to take a while. We used those on the 300,000m row when we had two folks to each ergo rowing twenty minutes at a time.

I'll bear them in mind, but think they might taste a bit sickly, especially as I will be drinking sugar drinks, but everyone has said have a variety so will get a box. Milk was on the agenda anyway.

FWIW, I lost my appetite on the 12hr, but not during the 100k, or the few failed attempts. Not sure why, but I'd definitely recommend a wide variety, but you already know about this type of session/effort
