ReplyDeleteI bet your feet appreciate the rest :-). What you got lined up next?
Excellent pictures and video out on the course. It brings it all flooding back, but sunnier and drier than I'm used to.
ReplyDeleteForgot to say, I'm sure your parents' support was no more than moral, or else you'd be disqualified, no? ;-)
ReplyDeletehey Richard - I think i mentioned before. not much racing lined up other than the Adidas Thunder Run 24hr in July. Looking forward to that one as its sister event (wiggle 12hr) in march was a blast! probably fit in another training ultra-race between now and then too. How about you??
ReplyDeleteNick - yep morale booster only! I knew the rules re support and wasn't gonna get myself busted!
Nice one Stu! I was tempted with the thunder run but have the Lakeland 50 race on July 23rd plus the North Downs 30k on June 20th. Still looking for one after Lakeland 50 but have not decided as of yet. Caesars Camp endurance 50 on October 9th is a good bet. My birthday is on 2nd so it could work out a great present :-)
