Report

Started in Ottawa at the Old Depot Museum and went south to Iola. Weather was perfect, no rain or snow, 40 degrees and a tailwind. I had aid at mile 25 which consisted of a refill of water and gels. From that point my girlfriend Kim joined me to the end on a bike. At mile 30, 3 friends joined me to finish it out. Once we got into Iola, we past mile 52 and struggled to find the finish (Bruner St). I crossed the road on Madison St and went under a large arch way which we thought was the finish. Stupidly I ended the activity and then immediately realized that we had 0.18 miles to finish. I have uploaded all three GPX Files (the 2 split and 1 merged).

The route is beautiful but very boring, this is a mental slog.
