Just ran the Richmond half marathon this morning. It was my buddies first half and I just stuck with him the whole time. So much fun getting to watch people reach their goals!

Great! Must have been fun?

[goosehd]

@Nik Yes we had fun, although my youngest said she is never running again….but she will.

I ran with my oldest, kept the pressure up to finish mid-pack and then we went back to finish with my wife and youngest.

Great experience and will definitely sign up again!

A few miles out on the Cerbat Hills near Kingman, Arizona. The Rav4 I reserved wasn't available but the X1 is ok. So nice to run on dry desert trails as a break from the English mud.

Finished South Downs Way 50 mile ultramarathon in 8 hours 25 mins today.

@Nik wow that’s an incredible time! Well done mate! Are you able to post a GPS file of the route as I live by the downs, I’m assuming it was Eastbourne, beachy head etc? Perfect conditions today too! How you feeling?

[jerkules]

I swear @Nik is a machine. Well done man

Curious how you're feeling as well. Anything you would change or do differently?

@Nik that’s nuts. Congrats!

Worthing to Eastbourne. Yeah conditions were good.
I wasn't sure if I could finish going into this race because training hadn't gone to plan due to ankle injuries. I did two back to back 2o mile runs last weekend though, so finishing them meant I could go give it a try. As for race strategy, was hoping for 9 hours when my original pre-injury goal was 8. I think I executed the race pretty well, was consistent with nutrition of tailwind and gu gels. Had energy for the whole race. The thing that slowed me down was foot and leg pain, just from not having spent enough time on my feet in training. So that is the thing to change for next time. Tired and satisfied now and sore.

@Nik Congrats. I had a sprint distance today.
