Report
This was my second attempt. I tried last September and fell 4mins short. I have trained well and it showed today.
Nice dry day with a good wind to keep me cool. The route is absolutely amazing, taking in all that the Peak District has to offer. Lots of hefty climbs and fast descents.
I felt in control for the whole run. I did start to feel the effort on Stanage Edge but that was due to lack of water. I started with 1.2l and I was nearly dry by then. I found a good stream on the descent and felt amazing to the end.
