really? It’s a bit of a jerky snoozefest IMO

Agree with you before they started the race , but now they seem to have got it a bit more together. And some great views when the feed is working.

Ah ok, i will tune in again after TdF

I hope she can make it stick. Some of the old hands in the women’s race seem to be holding back.

Beth wins in 17:10 and 7th overall - amazing performance!!! Second fastest time ever which in those conditions is really impressive.

Jim Walmsley only finisher under 16 hours ( last year there were 10) in 14:46 - he is a machine!

Probably only at the very beginning. Watching all this really makes me want to get in even more. Must get that NDW100 Qualifier

Just watched the last hour - amazing that so many finishers complete the race during this hour. The second to last guy running at 45 degrees to vertical - was absolutely nail biting to see if he could finish. With 2 steps to go he started going backwards - was screaming him over the line. Totally agree @p00key - fingers crossed for the 5th time lucky in the lottery this December

Seems to have led from 15 miles out - stunning performance given the close chase behind her for most of the race

We saw that too and were also screaming for him to.get over that finish line . I couldn’t believe he stepped back - now that drama.for you . We just need to keep chipping away - we will get there eventually…

If I did get in I would be torn at having a pop at 24 and just completing - not sure that I am good enough for sub 24 on that course depending on how hot it was
