There is a wild-arsed crazy part of me that wants to stand and roar at the utter madness of such an attempt. It's also telling me to change my entry on the day and join you; what an amazing thing to achieve! And we could take a picnic with us too ...
I'm serious. This could be fun!
Well, I´m sure you would do it under 7 hours 30 minutes if you had decided to train for it, S. . It would be fun to have a mate or several mates doing the whole course together. Unfortunately, MP3s aren´t allowed; therefore, so many hours on my own -if I don´t find someone to keep their pace - could be really boring but very good for my mind.
Anyway, if I manage to finish the ultra, I´ll pay a round of drinks.
