Nailed it
Just a quick update to let you know that I completed 66 km today in 6 hours and 12 minutes. I almost didn't make it – at 4 hours I started crashing because my body had run out of fuel. This was my fault, as I started drinking my electrolytes too late. So I had to stop and top up – the good news is I felt it before things got bad. Lesson learned: Next time I'll start fueling earlier and more aggressively.
Yes, I'm sore. Really, really sore. And pleased.
