13 Weeks to Go
A 40km run on the Sunday with nearly 1800m ascent, climbed in the pool at the end to cool down the legs which was harder than the run itself. As it was my birthday the kids had made a cake which was just what I needed to help wash down the beer.
A Blog to keep me honest while I add up the miles for training.
Essentially the object is simple: you start at Milngavie Railway Station (7miles north of Glasgow) at 1am on 19th June & run/jog/walk to Fort William Leisure Centre by noon on the 20th June, 35 hours to cover 153km (95 miles) including 4499m (14760ft) of ascent. The distance may not sound a lot but the total ascent is where the real pain is generated.
