Yeah, there wasn’t really a taper to my training at all, going up Snowdon twice the weekend before probably wasn’t smart either (hungover both days) and likely what gave me the cold.
Gripes aside, I’m chuffed to bits - I’ve never done anything that felt so hard, or so close to my absolute limit. Gives you an idea of what’s possible when you’re prepared to get down to it.
@Chalfie cheers! Grim as it was, definitely still worth it.
Be proud of what you've achieved.
From personal experience, a big session a week before a major event will have an impact on your performance even if you've trained well.
