Indeed. Not the best build up. But fingers crossed it all goes to plan. :+1:

That route looked nice but they’ve now cut away to highlights of UTMB.

Not sure I’m interested in another 100K race but the 50K could be doable!

Been waiting for her and just saw the DNF. Bad news pookey, hope you recover soon, but good effort for giving it a go with that week behind you.

Thanks all - just back now - I just couldn’t get up the ascent - I just felt sick and shaky - other bits weren’t too bad but I definitely don’t feel right . It’s Something out of my control so I won’t sweat over it too much…

Sold my soul to the devil (Ironman)!

Just entered the Arc of Attrition by UTMB…

Not as expensive as I thought (paid ÂŁ225).

Think it’s going up in 25% increments. A mate booked the 50 yesterday and it was 139. Today it’s up to 150.

Think the 100 is up to 260 now.

That would explain it.

I paid less than the advertised price - was worried that i’d entered the 50 by mistake!

Anyone else fancy a bit of January coastal path action?

Completed it mate

:stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

… My thoughts about ironman and utmb and the growth of the event aside. It’s still a cracking good race.
