← Fortitude Ultra - Pippingford
This was my first Ultra! Went all in and attempted the 50 mile! Having done my first marathon 2 weeks prior i was unsure of how my legs would hold up. This event really appealed as if i could not manage 50 or even 40miles i could still drop to 30 miles and get a medal! Once i got over the shock of the hills, i settled into it. Halfway, felt good, though i was doubting being able to do the second 25 miles. Fortunately with alot of determination i finished the 50!!!! ( with 1 minute spare i was told!) Soooo happy to finish the 50! Overall i would say that this is a great event as you can try a longer distance and drop shorter and get a medal. The course is tough with some steep parts! A great event and will be back in March!!
