Too shagged to scribble down my usual Homeric tome - for now. Will put out a long winded ramble in the coming days for those bored enough to read it.
Essentially, had an alright day, did a 3:35 when I was aiming for a 3:30, came 277/500. Was surprised how broken I felt at the end. Also, felt bad at the start and was way further back than I thought. Stomach felt odd/slight headache but that went away after 6-8 miles. Got a decent second wind just after the 3rd last climb, which was good for morale as the last 6 miles are much harder than the first 10 as they contain over half the ascent.
All in, I got it done in an ok time with pretty minimal preparation. I also paid the price of minimal preparation by sacrificing my legs to the Fell Gods, not that they'd want them - they were shite.
