Good start, felt fine, ok climb of Pen-Y-Ghent, then took a fair few on the descent which made me very happy, carried on steady across the boring bit, but got really down by the time I hit the road, and lost a lot of the time I'd caught on people in the mile up the road to Ribblehead. Had a very much needed drink from Neill and trogged on up to the Whernside climb. Stomach not happy and the two gels I had did nothing for my legs. Eventually got to the summit and cruised down to the farm well inside the Hill Inn cut off which I was beginning to worry about whilst climbing. Had a couple of jelly babies, a drink and set off a little refreshed up Inglebrough. Massive mental boost when I hit the summit and picked up around 70 places on that last leg back into town. So much so, Neill missed me finish cos I was well ahead of the people he had been using to judge my pace :D took a lady on the run-in as well :)
Feeling well tired, frustrated at the hideousness that was the middle section but pleased I did it and ready for a PB next year.

Around the finish back to find Neill, Andy and Sarah, to the car to drop off my bumbag and to the burger van for fooooooood.

Foam rollery joy. OUCH.
