Report
Weather: Grey and drizzly at the start in Cheriton but warm and sunny by the time I crawled into the finish.
Route: Very overgrown in places - battering waist-high nettles and brambles out of the way for long stretches made it quite hard work.
In hindsight - 1.5l of fluids wasn't enough for a 4+ hour run - so suffered a bit in the last few miles as I hit the tarmac in Southampton.
