    Fantastic effort Sarah and a great video..It's great to watch when you video your races as it gives a great insight into how tough these ultras are... I finished my 1st Ultra last Saturday at the age of 49 and struggled badly with Indigestion after taking on solids.. despite not having any issues during my long runs in training.. Strange how the body seems to reject proper food the further you run!!!?? Keep up with the great videos and we will keep watching and learning.

    Great to see you out running your heart out ;-)
    And.... as a little old man it's really reassuring to see you walking the flat bits towards the end of the race. If someone young with long legs ends up walking, then I don't feel so bad about me doing it ;-)
    Although to be fair, I would have started walking a LOT sooner than you did :-)
    Super looking forward to your next race. I think it runs through where I used to live, so I'll be really interested in catching a glimpse of my old haunts as you run through them. ;-)
