Not sure whether to write this up, but did a run.
I had DNF'd this race *five* times before. 😱 Got it done this time, I don't need to come back. 😁
Didn't go to plan but there was a "plan a, plan b and plan c", plan b it was. Dragged home for the last leg by my excellent pacer for my "one day" buckle. 👌

Couple of pics from the time I thought running 200 miles was doable. (it wasn't)

Centurion Grand Slam? Completed it mate.

Going to try out some different nutrition for tomorrow's Chiltern Wonderland 50.
Salted boiled potatoes, avocado, and a small amount of grated cheese wraps. Tastes amazing!
I am definitely not someone who can stomach loads of sugar on long runs. Always feel better with real food. Hopefully these will work well! Especially with a decent cup of tea.

Ran the Centurion North Downs Way 50 at the weekend.
Felt great in the cool morning conditions, passing 50km in 6:22. Tweaked nutrition to reduce sugar, and that worked well.
Unfortunately then the sun came out, the course got lumpier, and as usual I overheated.
Finally finished in just over 12 hours, but legs feel good, so I still have some running left in me that I hope I can unlock with a better fluid strategy.

Felt like crap, stress score through the roof, unable to train for weeks, should have spent the day in bed, but got it done. The Grand Slam of 50s is still on.
That said, it was an absolutely stunning day out on the trails. The views along the South Downs Way were incredible, and the decent tailwind helped keep me cool and propel me forwards.
