norfolk 100K

Race report – Norfolk 100k Sat 5th June.  I was lucky enough to run this with Mandy Foyster.  We were the only 2 NRR members entered (I wonder why?) and a 330am start meant we were at Castle Acre ready for the 6am start.  I have completed a few positive Steps events therefore we recognise most of the runners.  We started well.  We had a plan (Mine was to get further than I did 2 years ago when I withdrew from same race injured).   I got a little worried as I thought I was struggling a little before I got to the coastal path!  (The first 20 miles is Peddars Way).  After a marathon, it felt easier and after 2 marathons a piece of cake!   We completed 2 hrs before cut-off and in a credible time of 14hrs.  As someone who finished his first half marathon 5 years ago hardly able to walk, I felt fresher after 63 miles than in that race.  Many mentioned I should try a 100 miler next….. Maybe next year! Glyn
