Run Sandringham 24 2026.
1st introduction into the world of Ultras....
Lessons learned. But overall a solid event.
Target was 100k. 13laps required. And by some spot of luck managed 13laps, with 27mins to spare for a total of 104km or 65miles.
After lap 2. Hated it. There was absolutely nothing enjoyable about it. Didn't want to keep running/walking/shuffling. Didn't want to keep eating and drinking. Just didn't want too. However, looking back now I get it. There's something about finding your self imposed limits and pushing past them.
That to me is Verda. The Fan Dance unlocked it and this weekend has left a lasting mark on what I thought I was capable of, while also making me think what am I capable of.
Chloe Bunn and Aaron Wooldridge were out taking part. Both put in amazing efforts. Proud of both of them.
But I do have to give all the love to Chloe. We carried each other. Can't put it into words.
The Run Sandringham team was brilliant and all the marshalls were great. Thanks for volunteering.
If your looking for an ultra event I would highly recommend.
Has gave me food for thought on what I would really like Verda to become. Let's see if we can get there.
