Thanks for the positive words Nelly. I hope the wriggle room gives me what I need..currently I have to be aware of the severity of discomfort from hip arthritis-which is usually ok when I run but I'm treading on thin ice at times! I've been "cleared" (!) by physio and doctors to continue ultras. It seems I have what's called "juvenile arthritis" which probably began to develop about 25 years ago but started to be a bit of a nuisance only a year ago. Two ultras signed up for before the year's end.

Oh bad luck torey - I have a friend who did a 100 and had to pull out with near hypothermia at 85 and no amount of telling her she did great, and also more importantly she was sensible not to risk her health would make her feel any better about it, so I know it's absolutely gutting.

For me a miniscule 19, really hurt at the end, but pace on the hills was sub 8.30 in the heat so I'll take that.
