Ah well just have to embrace it seeing as its every time now :lol:

Goal is sub 1 hour 50 minutes with an ultimate goal of sub 1 hour 30 minutes.


Completed

And it hurt like hell.

A little yes. Spoke with a guy I know who did their race down south & he said I should look at it as more of a speed race/workout & to get some practise in. I've got the Spartan Beast due in November so this one will be used more to keep my hand in more than anything else & see how this next 4 weeks of training is progressing.

Good chance I'm entering this http://thepainbarrier.co.uk/ on Saturday.

Found out via Facebook there is a place going so sent off details & just awaiting confirmation.

That's a full weekend of racing now as I'll be doing another 10k event on Sunday :lol:

Pain barrier all done & dusted. Never shook so much from the cold in my life. Couldn't even hold a cup of coffee at the end because I was spilling it all with shaking :shock:
