#bigjourneytalks I was lucky enough to be offered sports nutrition by @SponserUK – who helped with not just their products, but whole plan.0

comments -
Shannon from Sponser was super helpful – going over what I normally use in training and coming up with suggestions as to what to try. Most nutrition products, even those for longer ‘endurance’ events, tend to be for use over a max of 5 or 6 hours… so above that is tough to get right.

This is Scott – he came and rode with me for 20 miles on the last day… because he saw I was only a few miles from his house on the live tracking.He’s a mental health nurse and he’d been on a training course with Mind that morning!Lovely guy… he sat on my wheel (I wouldn’t let him sit in the front as I felt I had to do this on my own) and he just kept encouraging me and telling me I was doing well… It was like I had the whole lot of my twitter followers sat on my wheel, supporting me. Brilliant.
