Just completed this two day event (2 x 30 miles), & had a great time running in the New Forest. Organisation was brilliant with superb support & cameraderie...cannot believe that until the Around the Isle of Wight Ultra last June that I had never thought I was capable at aged 55 of multi day marathon/ultra running.
Now after a number of 2- day events & 2 x 3- day events (Atlantic & Jurassic Challenges), I'm totally hooked on pushing back those self-perceived boundaries!
Need some advice please. I've entered Comrades this year & because money is a little tight, shall be travelling alone rather travelling wife my wife. Can anyone recommend any reasonable priced accommodation that is close to the start please?
I'm only intending to go for 4-5 days so any advice would be very welcome . I've noticed that 2:09 Events will arrange accommodation but at over £700 for a single room, it's way out of my price range.
...or if anyone else cannot take part........ (Fat-Feet have emailed to say entries have closed with no mention of a reserve list)........ please contact me on:
