Tea Round attempt 1 - went off the boil!

Heavy leg coffee jog turned home segment hunt

Tranter’s Round record 8h27m53s

My best ever run
Perfect conditions 
Solo and unsupported

The endgame was gloriously difficult: my legs were just the right side of cramping, my nose was bleeding, rocks in my shoes, but I was able to access something extra, some level of focus that I’ve rarely if ever experienced. 

Bonked while driving home, all good after some proper food and a lie down. About 10mins taken off Jack Kuenzle record and a 25min PB

Only got about 3 mins ahead of Jack in the Mamores but then felt able to push on in second half (lots of endurance training and longer running this year) in contrast to last October when I attempted and was 15mins (* correction 5mins) faster than Jack at end of Mamores but then lost it in second half - partly due to weather crapping out, but also didn’t have the endurance (bailed)

I could never have run that hard without Jack’s record to try and beat

Oh, and I’ve never seen the film…
