Start 6:00AM / Finish point 4:23PM : Millenium Cross, Greve de Lecq, between St Ouen & St Mary

Selected to start on the North and tackle the biggest and longest stretch of elevation early. Out clockwise, hugging the coastline as close as possible. 

Weather stayed dry and sunny until the last couple of hours which delivered a rain and wind battering. 

Was able to achieve solo and unsupported as the qualifying water supply stops turned up (see tap image) and also an always open-un manned public toilet. 

SUCH a beautiful island to run!
