Win!
Incredible!!! Well done.
This is where I would normally say âNever again!â But my race was deferred to 2021 already.
Thanks for the support all, the tritalk community really helped me through this - I really mean that. Your stars
Good job! Hope you managed to keep out of the pubs.
Iron will
Assume youâre getting the medal? Thatâll be a unique medal!
Wow, absolutely amazing effort. I whimped out due to long run last weekend, Cascais coming up, blah blah⌠what you did today took a massive mental effort as much as physical effort. Donât worry about your deferred IM you will be fine.
Brilliant!! Especially at your age
Love the running vest (my home town).
And tell me it wasnât you who made the photo collage in T2??
Enjoy the wine and rest up.
Thatâs some effortâŚ!
Have tomorrow off âŚ
Well done, great effort on your own.
Expensive medal. Expensive postage from the US. Possibly worth it if itâs any different from the one I could buy for completing the distance in 7 days?
Right out of the top drawer, great stuff @joex
Awesome @joex - what a showing to get through that on your own. Amazing stuff
For a moment I thought you had brimmed that wine glass to the top!
No its my only wine glass left and glad I didnt, I only managed a few sips with a bit of rice and beef. Now comes the long week of fatigue, even after that day only slept 6 hours!
@Amanda the medals are expensive and pre-order so wont arrive until December but they are available from their European store. I dont think theyre any different for 7, 3, or 17h events but its doesnt look like many are finishing so farâŚcould be the highest DNF for an IM event in history
Ah yes - âŹ89.21 for the medal / t-shirt / cap bundle, including postage. I could order it now, and I havenât finished the race. (I will, later.)
The DNF rates will be interesting.
