60 minutes done in the rain. Felt refreshing but a bit of a mental game to get out of bed when I checked the weather would be clear after work. The last thing I want to do is really run that long after 8-10 hours on my feet. HR was pretty good, I took my inhaler and ran within 10 minutes of it. My peak flow went from 480…
Got to the turn on the bike after a cat and mouse few miles with a woman whose number 510. Every time I overtook she was back within minutes, and visa versa. She left me on the climb back up from the turn however, I had to leave her go as she had a moan about one or other of us risking a drafting penalty. I was 1:23 to the…
What a shame I didn't know you were there. I thought it was a really enjoyable hour or so. They must have told those stories hundreds of times but still managed to make them sound fresh and interesting. I would have happily met up though unfortunately I'm back at the hotel now -- I'm staying down in South Bay (near Andrew…
Mark, my lung capacity which should be 600 litres is still only 510 litres. I rarely used to blow below 575L so got a way to go. Prob coughing up crap a millilitre at a time. Anyway folks, thanks for the complements on the time. I had to laugh on Sunday, I bumped in to Paul Rees & co. Paul looked wryly despondent and said…
Sorry guys, another flying visit. As weeks go, even by Foxy standards, this one has been a challenge. Just to add to it, a wasp flew behind my sunnies this morning, and stung me just by my eye. Very ouch still but not a lot to show for it. So sore! However have managed to clock up 103.21 miles in June and 510 ytd. However…
Just thought I have to mention the new running shoes I bought yesterday. It's my second pair of NB's as i have some 510's as well. But I got these new ones for my Ultra runs coming up. I wanted something light and edging towards minimalist but without losing some comforts. I picked up the 590 V2's for 37£ and I have to say…

I agree SDM the preparations and emotions i've been through over the last 5 months have definetely been like no other race i have ever prepared for before. I have experienced quite a bit of stress and worry a lot of it has been self inflicted i must admit i.e.worrying about my back,my charity,my times etc. But looking back…
