Night-owl
Tim Hutchings on twitter reminded me ( not personally) that this race started today. 3100.srichinmoyraces.org Anyone done it. Or plan too. Though I'm not an ultra runner yet! These races intrigue me |

Night-owl errr no and errr no😃 Once upon a time while volunteering at the bottom of Pen Y Fan on a Beacons 100 miler at around 3am in July, I found myself chatting to a very nice bloke who was supporting his friend. He said he hadn't done "anything" like this and couldn't comprehend running 100 miles through the night on this sort of terrain. I said I couldn't either as I'd only done a relatively flat 100 miler, we then discussed our race history (mine didn't take long!) and he tells me he'd done this race (and not just oncebi believe!)..my mind was blowm...no wonder he couldn't comprehend only doing 100 miler through the night in the mountains...I mean why would you even bother getting out of bed for it😃 |

Just got home from ogee 's Two Towers 50k night race. A cracking route (Satan's staircase aside) and well organised. I may have to go back and do it in daylight for the views.

Kilian gives a very detailed review of his training and races in 2022, in what's been a very successful year mtnath.com During the section on Recovery, I particularly liked this graphic which shows the Cost v Benefit of good and bad things affecting recovery |

Mr. K.
So how far will Aleksandr Sorokin run in his 24hrs this weekend - will it be a mind blowing 200 miles..?

Slightly tangentially, the Brathay 10 in 10 has had a shortage of female applicants this year and is inviting applications from female runners.
