....and boy did it hurt! I did the Human Race Wildman around Hankley Common in Surrey....10km run / 18km bike / 5km run. Believe it or not, the worst bit was the first lap on the bike, as I suffered real problems with cramp - something that hardly ever happens when just riding.
The course was brutal, with heavy sand, water crossings and lots of short steep climbs and descents. Was pleased to break 3hrs and came halfway thru the field. Given I've never run more than 8km off road before, and haven't done any competitive mountain biking for 10 years or so, was chuffed just to finish.
Still pondering if I'll do another one!
