100 miles: Time 23:30:09<br />

Thanks<br />

I went into this race without enough training to make me confident, but<br />

came out with a sub 24 finish and “100 miles – One Day” buckle. Whilst it<br />

was my legs and head that got me round on the day, I don’t think it would<br />

have happened without a whole other bunch of people.<br />

I travelled with Dave Stuart for over 12 hours and his chat and company got<br />

me through some pretty tough night time miles. Falling on his arse at mile 76<br />

provided a bit of a laugh too<br />

The volunteers were wonderful and made the aid stations something to look<br />

forward to – a bunch of friendly faces even in the black of night, helping in<br />

any way they could.<br />

There must be a lot of work that goes into making an event like this happen –<br />

course marking, permits for various parts of the course, insurance, booking<br />
