The Ewen Version

Irish 24 hour national championship in Bangor, Co Down.

2nd place, 126.1 miles = 202.913 km

Unreal. Still cannot believe it.

The hardest thing I've ever done. By a huge amount. But incredibly rewarding.

Longer version to follow.

  14. Ha! I'll have to be careful here or I'll commit the cardinal sin of blogging: a comment longer than the post. Brilliant result mate. I'll take up Robert's comment and suggest Ireland - like honorary Aussie Sonia O'Sullivan.
