125.5km / 1700m of climbing. I am not sure I will have recovered for Palace!

Absoloutly amazing Sylv after giving it large and not holding back on the fast training run yesterday then today nearly 7 hours of Pain :shock:

I thought I was in pain earlier but you just put me to shame :wink:

Looks like you were flying on the first few laps, much faster than the others.

You are gonna kick some butt at Palace this year.

Well done Sylv, I guess you have recovered from your bout of flu then?

Very impressive Sylv, Chapeau! What sort of stuff did you consume on the ride?

Just gels and jelly babies, but that was a bad plan for such a long race. By half-way I was dying for something savoury, and on the last two laps had stomach pains and felt like puking. Will write full report.

Fantastic result Sylv. The 12hr should be a breeze! For savoury snacks I can recommend small cold boiled potatoes with some salt on them....mmmm tasty.
