Ha ha ! 50 miler for J's in the wind & rain on Sunday it is then !

I might do the j's at a very steady pace to prepare for the 65 miler, and see how it goes.

Was thinking might do the j's 35 mile route depending on the way I'm feeling and the weather then make a decision at the 35/50 mile point, if all goes ok I will do the Helen 65 week later.
