You're welcome mate, couple of other things...

Track your weekly distance using a GPS watch or phone app. Aim for a bit more total every week. But don't beat yourself up if you have a bad day or week, or if something siezes up. Rest is key.

Take food with you. Flapjacks and nuts are great for snacks en route. Nothing worse than getting hungry half way.

Learn to tape your feet with zinc oxide tape - and get two pairs of shoes / boots worn in to about half way before the event.

I'll stop rambling on now...
