8 Litres of Water, 14 S Caps, 7 Gels and 8 hours 5 minutes , 50 some odd Ks done! Went out super slow and just tried to maintain. The course was shorter then the advertised 52.5 km... loops were somewhere between 6 and 7 km in length probably closer to 6! Finishing up the 5th of 7 laps I was done, way too hot so I sat down for 10 minutes cooling down. The final two laps seemed daunting before I stopped but after cooling down a bit I was OK to go on. On the last two laps I held my left collapsible water bottle and put a bottle of Ice in its place. It seemed to help having the cold spot over my heart. So I finished and thats about all I can say. Came pretty closes to DNFing my first 50K but i am glad I hung in there and got it done!
