INTENT
4 weeks on from my first 100 miler
Bit of a weird one really, don’t worry it’s not a sob story.
When you do a new distance that’s about 50% more than you’ve done before it can bring some reservations and fear, we all get this and with most things this happens prior, but once you start you just get on with it.
In all honesty I had a great race and really enjoyed it, nothing really went wrong.
👆🏻(this rarely happens in ultras)👆🏻
But a few days after the race when reflecting on how well the race went, I remembered i just stuck to the plan and done what was asked, no deviating thinking I know more.
What was asked of me👇🏻
-The recces
-The back to back days
-The smaller races that were training runs
And most importantly, good consistent training alongside a good plan.
A good plan executed well will always deliver good results, even a poor plan that’s executed well will deliver results.
With training there has to be intent and effort.
Anyways, some Saturday boring thoughts.
Beard looks decent, I must admit.
Enjoy the sun 🌞
