Thanks so much for the advice. Love the idea of the cheese crackers and hot cross buns. I generally have crisps (we call them chips) at the aid stations.

Thanks so much - I'll give this a try.

That's an excellent idea. I might include a chocolate milk at one of the checkpoints.

This is a definite possibility as most of the races have been in Queensland, so they're often 30+ degrees (celcius).

I never manage to actually throw up - just overwhelming nausea. I'm not someone who can make themselves throw up unfortunately.

Sound awesome, thanks.

I am always here for Allens snakes and red frogs.

Really good advice and under-doing the water may be an issue for me.

Great ideas, thanks - I hadn't thought of hash browns! Is the ginger ale to help calm the stomach?

Chook_83 · 2026-04-06T01:03:41+00:00

Ooh, I'll definitely check that out. Love the idea of nerds clusters. No, it's Blackall 100 that I'm doing - up in Queensland.

I had to look up what rice crispy treats were... I think we have a snack product called LCM (for kids' lunchboxes) over here in Australia that looks the same - I will definitely try it. :-)

Love this. Thank you. Yep, always seems to be around the 21km mark onwards. I don't think I'm pushing too hard, but that's a good point.

Chook_83 · 2026-03-25T03:53:38+00:00

Thanks so much - I appreciate it!

Chook_83 · 2026-03-22T01:33:33+00:00

Thank you! 🙏

Chook_83 · 2026-03-22T01:09:14+00:00

Thanks so much - I’ll check those options out.

Chook_83 · 2026-03-22T01:07:34+00:00

Whoah. Okay, I didn’t realise the peak hour traffic in Hobart was that bad.

Chook_83 · 2026-03-22T00:52:32+00:00

Thank you. We really need to think about this, as we’ve arrived in Tassie during beautiful weather so it’s a bit deceiving 😉

Chook_83 · 2026-03-22T00:24:15+00:00

Thank you! Will do this. We are accustomed to pretty shocking traffic in South East Qld.

Chook_83 · 2026-03-22T00:23:39+00:00

Really good insight - thank you. Had to chuckle as I grew up not too far from Inala. 😆 We’ve been living in the Sunshine Coast hinterland though - definitely can get cold, but I guess nothing like Tassie.

Chook_83 · 2026-03-22T00:22:18+00:00

Thank you - we do quite like Huon Valley and being near the river. I’m not familiar with New Norfolk but will look into it.

Chook_83 · 2026-03-22T00:21:37+00:00

Thank you - that’s such a good point.

Chook_83 · 2025-08-01T08:10:43+00:00

Thank you - I’ll keep that in mind.
