Wiggle Magnifcat 2011. 20 miles longer than previous attempts. Exhausted myself on the way out holding onto a faster group who turned out to be doing the shortest distance. Marooned in pain, now pissing with rain and cold, had thought it was a flat course, it isn't - return not flat at all. Spent lots of time in the drops against the wind, neck barely holds head, nearly crash looking down too much. Attempt at good time morphs to just finishing until the last 5kms which sees an ill advised last ditch attempt. The sign about 3kms optimistic truly want to die etc etc. Good lesson - just about to enter 2012.
