Can anyone give me any advice on recommendations on recovery from giving blood, due to donate then run snowdownia ultra 10days later. Is this sufficent time to recover? Thanks
It normally takes 2-3 weeks for me to get back "up to speed" after a donation, even for a parkrun. I'd suggest you postpone your donation until a few weeks after the event - you are going to need all the oxygen transfer ability you can get, especially as it sounds like it might be a wee bit hilly......
Agree with Nessie best not to risk it. (I once did Parkrun the day after giving blood and after 1km I felt drained and each km I got significantly slower).
