Bux77 Okay so I didn't get my predicted time of 3:15, but it was just too hot to run any faster. Fitness wise I felt great, and was on target at 20 miles having run it in 2:30. But getting cramp come on at 19.5, and then intermittently during the last 6 miles, my pace slowed right down to 8:15/20, as I had to run within in a certain pace zone to avoid getting cramp. Stopping at the water stations to sort my salt levels out with electrolyte tabs and salt sachets helped and gave my legs a bit of respite. All in all though it was a really good event and a generally flat course, with some good support. I just know now that I can't run in hot conditions without getting cramp.
