Set out to finish this in under 24 hours. Was moving well and on target towards Roseberry Topping. At about mile 40 I started having stomach issues by mile 50 I was struggling to eat or drink. I managed to get to Saltburn and try and sort it out but nothing was working. Was a hard and long night along the cliffs to Robin Hoods Bay and my dreams of Sub 24 were all over. I decided to get some sleep, all night on very little food or water had taken its toll. After a 30 minutes nap I woke feeling a lot fresher. And worked out if I pushed the last bit I could finish within the record. So I have it a go and managed to get it in the bag, finishing on 26:21:57.
