First time doing this route and really enjoyed it!
I needed a long run for my training block so figured I'd go for the FKT despite a pretty heavy week of mileage and strength.
Was colder than expected but warmed up the last half. Some sections still had snow and some icy patches but were usually pretty avoidable. Ran with 1.5L of water which ended up not being enough; ran out with 5-6 miles left so things got pretty difficult after that point. Consumed 4 gels and half of a poptart. I also had tailwind in one of my water flasks. The goal was sub 6 hours so might go back out on a less intensive training week and bring more water to get a better time.
