Not as tough as you might think. All the races on this paticular thread were open to runners and walkers (except Lugo which was a straightforward 10k road race). You can set your own pace and try to enjoy it... there's probably less pressure to actually compete and the random distances mean that you're not too obsessed with time. The emphasis is more upon "getting round".
Funnily enough the toughest race for me was probably the Lugo one. I set off too fast, spent the first part of the race dodging people and then had waves of people passing me at the end which was very demoralizing!
Antonio.. I have no intention of running the 101km race. Too far, too much commitment and not my idea of fun! I might consider doing the bike ride though... would you be interested?
Well actually, Antonio seems to have developed a penchant for ultra-marathons, so you never know. (I'll leave him to reveal his bombshell news...)
