1:52:27 in the National 50 today on 106", 18th place. Pretty happy as I did 1:55:30 about a month ago, and that's the best result I've had in a National. Bit of stress beforehand as we didn't know for sure what course it was going to be on until about 90min before the first rider! 44sec faster would have netted me 12th, bah. Bottrill won with a 1:41.
Now in a total state trying to feed myself jelly beans.
Yep, J4/16. I would have been a bit annoyed if it'd been moved to J50e as I'd ridden J2/9 (the 25 mile version) and also J4/16 in recent months as prep for the 50. No power meter but based on my course model I reckon I must have power PB'd at >300w for it which is good in my grim aero position.
