Thanks ferret, I like a thread to chat on as I find it motivates me to get out and run!

My progress is currently showing as 83% in the ultra but I expect that will fall dramatically tonight if previous days are anything to go by! Snakes and ladders indeed :-) I've done exactly 34 miles in real life so just over 50% done.

I'm not even thinking about the 100km, if I added in the dog walking and random steps I suppose it might be feasible but I am so looking forward to finishing the marathon tomorrow (only 5 miles left now) because I want to do other stuff, like swimming, without thinking about the run requirement!

LG - I replied to the email they sent yesterday - the one where they said " if you're still having problems please respond" - only it was a no-reply email so bounced. I couldn't find a way of contacting them and was in such a mood by this point that I gave up. A couple of hours later, my missing miles were back.
It's now showing me as being 83% finished. I'm nowhere near that far done. I'm expecting miles to disappear again this evening. What a farce!

Sorry I can't help...

No probs at all. I know between walks and runs they should by the end of the challenge have at 26.2 miles which is all I registered with them but it's just annoying

LD if I don't get the 100k I won't mind as I would rather keep my running legs strong.

I'm 43.72k into the 100k so almost half way there, though I'm finding it much harder than the virtual WHW. I was managing to do around 12 miles a day for that, so finished a day early but this time struggling to do the minimum 9 a day :(

I'm struggling with blisters. Having got wet feet and a couple of corkers last Friday, I've not been able to wear my walking shoes. Walking sandals have been much better than fit flops but the damage was already done, so I'm trying to be careful but each day I seem to get another one on each foot.
