Setting off at 1am 14/05/2022 from the kiosk on Peel promenade in a northerly direction and supported by my good friend Gary Kelly I embarked on my Raad Ny Foillan FKT attempt. 

Gary drove a van and met me at various locations to replenish and top up my water. 

He also ran with me at some points during the day.

The conditions were perfect during the dark morning time but as the sun came up it was clear that it was going to be a hot one. 

I adjusted accordingly and made sure I covered up and drank plenty of water.

All in all the challenge went well and I beat my old time by some margarine. 

I think this was most achieved by keeping my heart rate below 130 BPM for most of the day.
