Moonlight Challenge, Marshside Fisheries, Kent.

First time for the Moonlight Challenge. Weather was shocking..strong wind and snow showers with a wind chill of around -5.
Started great and moving along nicely, just under 9mm and on my second lap was told i was in 4th place!! Kept going along at the same pace despite stomach cramps and a huge amount of gas passing through me. At 18-19 miles had to use the bushes and left half my insides behind. Was a real slog from there on and couldn't get back to the pace i was at before. Marathon just 5 mins outside my PB and took an age to do the last lap 1h 22m but still got in slightly under my target time of 5h 30m

Not much i can do about the stomach issues so happy with my result and know that when i get a good day i can run very well.
