Skyrun! Went in with a goal to finish and feel good at the finish. Kept up a consistent pace the whole way, limiting stopping as much as possible, stuck to the plan nicely most of the way.
Ran with Ryan, Janneke & Rhys (ex paddler) all the way to Avoca, where Ryan & Janneke slowed a bit, Rhys and I pushed on together for the rest of the race.
Some really tough sections of the route and we were happy to tick them off, up and over the wall, up the bridle pass, but the section from the top to the turn was never ending, chilled at the turn for 10min and pushed on to the finish. Rhys had some admin with his headlamp and had to use his iPhone for the last 3hrs, so we slowed down a bit, but otherwise nice and consistent.
Keen to go back!
