    Well done Fu, there's no way on earth i could ever do that, or even half of it. Even when i was your age i don't think i could have done it.
    Liverpool is one of the wonders of Britain,
    What it may grow to in time, I know not what.

  • Thanks everyone!

    Ultrarunning is quite unique in sport as females are pretty much as good as males at it and you get better as you get older. For instance the record holder for the Badwater ultra, a 135 mile run across Death Valley in the middle of summer is a 43 year old man and the first five finishers in last years Badwater were 39, 49, 41, 37 and 50!
  • Good luck. That's some distance. Puts the GNR I'm doing this year to shame.
