Report

I started at 6 AM, rainy, a bit windy and of course very dark.

I met a couple of deers and a weasel.

The markings are good and with the GPX you are more than safe.

So I started alone and friends would come and go : the first friend joined me at km30 and he left 35 km later. Then a second buddy came from km65 until km 100. Last but not least I had two friends for the last part. I planned the entire meals ahead and my pacers/friends brought me a bag when they joined me. I had water in those bags, salty pills, snacks, mashed potatoes and pasta.

I finished at 10PM. We all went for a pint and or a soft after. "There is no I in DIY"

Because of the flood we had to run 3km more than what was expected. It wasn't that bad 1 week ahead, but It has rained a lot lately.

Can't wait for more people to try this one.
