UltraBobban; ultramarathon running adventures. Sunday, 4 May 2014. 3 Forts Challenge Marathon. I've not been blogging anything like I have done in the past. No time. Not really ever. However I thought it was high time I fed back on the race I completed today as it was a special one. Marathon #50. A belated BD pressie to myself. Back down to the Adur was a welcome high 5 with John Kipps, on marathon 98. Congrats to come buddy! Anyone recommend a factor 100? Sunday, May 04, 2014. Links to this post. Round ...

UltraBobban; ultramarathon running adventures: Compton Downland 40/20 Race Report
http://ultrabobban.blogspot.com/2015/04/compton-downland-4020-race-report.html
UltraBobban; ultramarathon running adventures. Saturday, 4 April 2015. Compton Downland 40/20 Race Report. No way. Kelvin whizzed past looking in fine fettle. He was really enjoying himself. I had 2 miles of undulating mud to cope with and then some streets. I peeled off after 20.1 miles and 2043ft of gain. Race over. Not a DNF but a race cut short. Well I am just pretty shite. I'll be back. It may take some time. Saturday, April 04, 2015. 5 April 2015 at 09:54. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). 100 Mi...

UltraBobban; ultramarathon running adventures. Saturday, 21 June 2014. Race Report South Downs Marathon. Marathon #51 was a bit of a worry from the start. I have not run more than 10 miles in the last 2 months and have been getting in junk miles. However I entered this with the trepidation of a lamb to the slaughter and you might well want to douse my quads in mint sauce this evening! Coming into the finish was great. I forgot how good a big finish was! Saturday, June 21, 2014. Links to this post. No you...

UltraBobban; ultramarathon running adventures. Sunday, 15 March 2015. Race Report: Ranscombe Challenge. I woke up a little unsure of myself before this race. I haven't done any serious miles recently and with a promising start to the year with the Tanners, have not got over 18 miles in the last 9 weeks. Still, with a coffee and marmite on toast in my belly I ventured out into the heavy rain and whizzed down to the Medway on the North Downs to Ranscombe Park. Sunday, March 15, 2015.

These days I call myself a runner...: South Downs Way 50
http://www.naominf.com/2015/04/south-downs-way-50.html
These days I call myself a runner. Wednesday, 8 April 2015. South Downs Way 50. With things having gone so poorly in the last few months, and with so little preparation in the week leading up to the race, it was with some trepidation that I arrived in Worthing on Saturday morning, looking for the start of Centurion’s South Downs Way 50 miler. That soon gave way to mild panic when I realised I’d arrived at the wrong place. Good to get all the mistakes and problems out of the way in the first hour of arriv...

These days I call myself a runner. Tuesday, 30 June 2015. The Great Barrow Challenge - 4in4. This weekend, I took part in the Great Barrow Challenge in Suffolk. It's a running festival, with people taking on half marathons, marathons, ultras, and combinations of the three, over a 10 day period. The most extreme option is running 10 x 50km ultras in 10 days! 65279;However, it turns out, running marathons is actually pretty tough. I think with all the ultras, I'd forgotten. Us at ZZ Top. But through force ...

http://www.naominf.com/2015/06/too-much-too-soon.html
These days I call myself a runner. Monday, 8 June 2015. Too much too soon. Yesterday I ran the Stour Valley Marathon, a race that I have been looking forward to all year since defering my 2014 entry. It rounded off a 46 mile week, my first of the Juneathon challenge. 8 June 2015 at 19:14. Lovely to see you but you were definitely brave running a marathon 2 weeks after GUCR! Hope you recover well and see you at another run soon! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Results I'm most pleased with. There are ...
