71K is what it amounted to today on today’s 6h race 👌🏻. That was pretty nice …. I attempted (for the first time ever) a negative split. By bumping pace every 2h. At the end it wasn’t super true to the plan (had to dig deep to summon the power).

This also resulted in a new 50K PB (by 12 min). But to be fair the old one was set in January (cold!) 2024 and a more exposed route. But I’ll take it 🤗

Wow! Well done!

That's impressive! Especially the negative split at this distance, and a 50K PB.

Congrats 🎉

That said, bodies are weird.

Hopefully a few gentle recovery sessions and some targeted stretching will stop its return.

I didn’t have any trouble really 🤗. There were areas (knees etc, but not shinboneish area) where minor annoyances came and went away again. Mostly during the first 20K (I deliberately didn’t push hard then). Then after that it was like nothing at all. Very weird indeed (but in a good way I suppose). Let’s see the after effects though 🤞🏼

I take it that the niggle you had leading up to today wasn't ever a factor, on the day?

That sounds like good planning. I always bring my own stuff too; I know what I need and want to avoid any nasty surprises. But afterwards, I tuck into the buffet.

Yeah I must say that I’m really satisfied. When I realized I could reach 70K I got super motivated to keep up pace as much as possible 🤗

I only took water from the shared foods etc. I brought my own energy that I stuck with. 80g carbs per hour. Via sports drinks the first 4 hours. Then gels the next 2. Not super lovely after so many hours; but highly effective at providing the carb base I needed.

Very good result, congrats!
A 5,5k loop is perfect, just running; the aid station is always within easy reach.
I love 6h-races 👍

It is excellent type 2 fun 

(the last 2 hours required a good amount of focus and self negotiation 😅 … it was indeed a tough one to “suddenly” summon even faster pace so deep into the race)

Actually the last -8 ish minutes was a huge “waste” (just jogged until the 6 hour limit 😂 … with all the others near the finish line) …. So I could have used them better if I had such objective 😆

Will for sure try again. Felt fantastic. Best execution ever I think. Felt strong throughout- never imagined I could pull of a sub 5 min pace at the 60/70 kilometers 😂👍🏻

I hope it was not the last time. Any learnings and insights from executing the race like this?

Damn, 890m short of the magic 72km and sub 5:00 pace.
