Stephen Brennan | Jun 9 2021, 4:49pm | I'll do a proper report on this in a few days but in the meantime I want thank everyone who helped and supported me in taking on the Round over the years, on the course and online. The attempt on the day capped off two years of preparation that was pure fun. I went out fast in the hope of a sub 24 finish but with cramping starting from 4 hours in, I realised quite soon that it wasn't going to happen so I focused instead on completing the course. The day itself was pure magic. More to come.... |
