Did the Lands End 100 miler today. Nice route, although of course lots of climbing because Cornwall. But the hills weren't the worst of it today - 60 miles of it was a gruelling battle with an exceptionally strong headwind that slowed you to a crawl and sapped your body heat. Instead of an expected 6:30, it took me 7:55
Edit to add that the wind speeds were 20-25 knots...
