During the first lockdown, when all races were cancelled, I decided to spend some time on the Sandstone Trail and recced it in sections until I was happy to attempt it from start to finish. I left my car at Frodsham and set off with my pack consisting of fluid and gels, on a surprisingly damp morning. I suffered a bit on the run and also lost some time, plotting a detour around some lively cows, but I was still happy enough with my effort overall. I didn’t post my attempt at the time as I knew there were faster efforts that had been completed as part of the official race but I have since realised that my run likely still counts as an unsupported attempt so thought I’d put it down here as a starting point.
