No organiser would do that, right?
No, not that extreme. It just felt neverending with +5000vm per day and sections of +15%. I live in Ghent, the only climbing close to home are the max 1km long bergs in the flemish ardennes. So I'm not used to/trained for longer climbs.

You've not met @skinny then?
Fair enough. I live in London and grew up in a flat desert (some might say dessert #hippyisfat) so I'm quite familiar with the challenge of climbing anything, really.
We did MdS last year which was 1000k and a bit more climbing but I think maybe had longer climbs rather than more shorter steeper ones. I run MTB gearing these days for this reason.

Entries are open, but I don't think I can swing it. I'm doing Liège Bastogne Liège with some clubmates a couple of weeks before. I could bin that to do another ultra but I've entered now and don't like dns'ing stuff / changing my mind, or else everything unravels.
I've got the OK to do something in may, so either skinny's one or B-hard, and another in July/August.

Sounds perfect for my hill climbing physique.
How steep are we talking? Endless 25%ers?
