Bosun Tony did 100 miles! I saw Sinj and Cstar as well. I managed 9 laps and am now in the bath trying not to fall asleep. Both of my blisters burst when running so my feet aren’t a pretty sight. Awesome weekend!

Well done CW. I also saw Bosun Tony (but he didn't see me) - I think he was concentrating too much!
Really enjoyed a fairly steady 6 laps for our parkrun team which makes a total of 20 laps over the 3 years I have done the event. Doesn't get me the 100 mile T-shirt though!

A brilliant weekend, well done everyone. Only managed half of my optimistic target at 50 miles, but by 1am I was done! My feet are battered but otherwise not too bad.
Saw Bosun Tony on the course, and Mr K helping out at a marshall point once he had done running dressed as a rabbit! Thought he was a sheep, getting tired by then!
Saw Dipps and got shouts from Groundhog and Sallykate. Saw DavidGould finishing a lap as I was packing up. Sorry if I missed anyone else.

I had a lovely time at endure. Marathon on Friday then being part of a team of 7. I was lucky to see Bosun Tony for a little chat on the start of one of his laps, a couple of shout outs to StuH. Also found Serendippily (and was it c9 being a doggy mummy?) and her team for a chat between laps.

Bosun Tony
Hi folks, what an event ! hobbling around the BA lounge waiting for my flight back to Aberdeen.....then back to the ship tomorrow !
Thanks Groundhog for coming up and saying hello....sorry if I never said much....you understand !!
Was looking out for Fetchies....we need to wear our tops more !! lol
100 miles, 3 times at Endure, but this is the toughest of them all, I coud have quite happily called it a day at 80, I was totally done...but then knew I would be kicking myself the following day (if I could move my leg !)
Well done on the mileage everbody, that was tough......we should all be very proud !

Well done all. Tony, great to hear from you. Haven't seen you for... 10 years?! (Glen Clova 2009?! Or was there a Scottish Fetch Mile some time more recently.) 24 hours / 100 miles is always a brilliant achievement.  G

Hi mate, yes been a long time ! it was indead Glen Clova, .....god I feel old !
Think the old bones are more for plodding along than cutting seconds off my marathon times these days.
Suffering a bit now....but that will pass......I'll always have the T shirt and medal !
Cheers G

Err, I've just checked. It was Glen Clova 2008!! If you feel old, bear in mind it was 2 decades ago for me (50 this year and I was 39 in 2008!)
I love that picture of you training on your boat, with the swell so big it hides the oil rig in background! G
