I'm gonna do a full network

Have you actually been to the stations you're changing at? Because if you have I really don't see how you think you're going to make some of them.

The linked sheet isn't the record time, many changes have subsequently been made. Thanks for the advice, but I have made room for most of those tight interchanges. The other thing that may help is the support team we'll have...

Especially if they are door holding eh

Or if they have a motorbike/scooter/taxi/uber/car waiting for them

Now that's outright cheating!

Got down to 15:28.... Heh

Believe it when I see it. It's one thing planning routes on a spreadsheet and another thing getting out there and doing everything as planned. Correct carriage positions, which corridors/escalators to head down (or up), rush hour, bus stops, the roads to run down etc. Also it will be warm for the runs and Bakerloo Line in the summer.

I've done a few FNCs and every time some things have gone wrong costing 20-45 mins time. Good planning builds in some slack and alternatives. My advice is not to publicise a theoretical time but let us know how it actually goes on the day. Good luck.

Now that's an idea. Just got my theoretical time down to 14:12 by linking all the stations by car instead of running/buses. Result. I'll try it tomorrow.

Have you built in enough slack to compensate for emergency Thames Water mains repair works though?

I reckon the Tomorrow People should have had a go at the record. They were based in a disused tube station iirc

You're probably right, we shall indeed have to see how it goes!

[Tube Geek]

Well I trump you all - I've bought Concorde,thus giving me a 01:56 time!

[Steeevooo]

Because Concorde would be so useful on a Tube Challenge...

[Tube Geek]

They've changed the rules yet again - you just have to see the station

[FelixJ20000]

What food is good to get delivered to us during the challenge?

[Iain]

Whatever you like - although if it's anything heavy I'd try to schedule it away from a run.

Drink is also important

Ok - I assumed it'd be best to avoid fast food etc

Drinks are of course important

I guess it depends what you like - although if you want anything non-fast food you may find it harder to obtain.

On unsupported runs I've taken stuff that is fairly harder to destroy by having it bouncing around on a run - so flapjack, Scotch eggs etc
