Saturday 24 April
The short version:
Fantastic winters training - more than double my usual mileage.
Used this race as a dress rehearsal for the West Highland Way Race (95 miles) in June.
Set off slower than last year, about 15 mins down after 3 hours. Really strong between 25 and 40 miles, gaining time without too much effort. Held it together well over the last couple of (hilly!) hours. Finished in 9 hours 59 mins, quicker than last year with what felt like 75% of the effort. 40th place out of about 300 starters. Already back in training and feel OK!
The long version to follow in The Pacemaker.
