Notes

My first ultra! What a learning curve! Ran with Andrew up until the marathon mark, then by myself up Constantia Nek and along Rhodes Drive. Nick cuaght me at Kirstenbosch top gate and we ran together from there, finishing together.

Felt amazing for the first 30km (bottom of Chappies). Went up Chappies (little and big) feeling strong. Hit the wind going down Chappies and by Hout Bay felt buggered! Then became hypoglycemic at the marathon mark. Misdiagnosed it and stopped taking sugars - wrong move! Really struggled from there. Nick got me over the last 6km.

Can't wait for next year!
