Para is the only way I'd get into an Olympics. I'll think about it.
It's never stayed numb this long before. It'd always go away as soon as I sat up which is why I've always thought it was blood flow related. Also it never happened in longer races 100s, 12s, 24s but now, after doing loads of stretching it's worse in a 100. Perhaps I cured the vascular issue and now it's a trapped nerve or something. Stupid feeble human body.I had soup, pasta, wine, tiramisu the night before #fatfuck
Had an energy bar when I woke up, bit of carb drink too and a gel before the start.

Shame about the leg. Maybe amputation? But congrats.
I rode to 92miles then took the turn to fulbourn. CBA!
I'm not sure what went wrong, used same feeding strategy as last 100. I can only think, the early start meant I had a small breakfast and didn't eat enough in days before.
