In fact there was very little tarmac in the Larmer; a couple of road crossings and one short stretch of, at most, a few hundred metres. The rest was on farm tracks (gravel/shale/mud) and footpaths (more mud). The total elevation change between the two is similar.

Will have to do the final winter league 5 mile road race instead. I'd much rather plod for 40 miles than try to do proper speedy running for 5!

jabberknit Mar 2017 6:11pm, 13 Mar 2017 1,461 posts	0 jabberknit Thanks, Tom, but I really can't do off-road stuff, it wrecks my legs. The main advantage of the ultra that's been cancelled, was that it was on cycle paths, so much less mud. Anyway, I've got a road ultra coming up at the end of April, so at least I've still got that to look forward to! Mrs Jigs, when you've got a little minute, please could you take off the 25th March Ultra from over there --->, and add the Connemarathon, for 23rd April? Ta!
