I averaged I think around 230km a day so too low really. I wanted to do 280km to 300km. I was planning to increase the mileage by starting around 4am so I could do around 150km before it became really hot which I think was a good plan but unfortunately I didn't get to implement it.
Actually 250km over first 5 days before neck issues set in so not fantastic but not terrible either.

For reference I wear jawbreakers. I also have 50mm risers on my aero bars.
My helmet is about 220g. I only slept in a bed.
Counter is you’d done a lot more miles than me before the start I hadn’t done that much specific stuff. I do think lifting/ tackling a 3 year old is fairly good core training mind haha
It was hard from the start certainly. What were your daily distances vs planned?
