I think I'm out
Rationale
- I've only been doing audax for a year, not more than 200km so far so 1400km is a big step up. Not in itself a reason,
But
- we're investigating a potential new treatment pathway for my son's seizures whish will involve many tests, MRIs, trips to GOSH for assessment etc and possible surgery, all of which has timing not in my control
- stuff at work with changing responsibilities, promotion interviews etc all in May/June/July
- time away from home for the training at an otherwise busy time
Other stuff
- having only been audaxing 12 months I have a lot to learn, another four years will teach me much
- just because other people are doing it doesn't mean I have to. I can be a perfectly happy and fulfilled audaxer at 200km, or maybe 300, perhaps 400.
- there are other challenges out there that I had in mind before I'd ever heard of LEL
- If I did it, I'd want to do it lying down, I need more practice at that.
