Yeah the last seven miles are a killer! I was craving some sort of incline on that course.
Might try and jump up to 100k on a rolling or flat-ish off road course this year and if I bail out halfway, I'll still be more than happy with it. Also got plenty of time to up the mileage. What sort of miles/week are people doing pre-ultras?
Also need to learn to run slow.
@duncs just took those fancy insoles out for a spin in some Speedgoats. Feel bouncier, definitely more comfortable on rocky sections (ie, jumping up and down off the kerb).
