Little loops round Thyon and up the very first bit of the course and very gentle strides.

Set off very slow with the fat people at the back and came through slowly, spent a lot of time heather bashing passing people on the single track. Able to plod up the climbs pretty well but on the flat and down hill where there was anything with rocks I kept nearly going over on my ankles and felt like most of the race was downhill. Stopped at all the aid stations when I felt my legs being drained of power and always felt much better after a little breather. Enjoyed it more when there was more people cheering me on and I liked the last climb but still not able to work at any thing that isn’t a very pace without legs losing all power and lungs working over time.
It was a good day and experience and definitely worth doing just be chatting with more people and getting to know the area.
