Although I was soaked through I managed to stay warmish. I actually started getting cold during the second feed stop so rammed some coffee and food down my neck and set off pronto to warm up.
Similar story at the end, I started shivering badly when eating my pastie and beans. I could barely cut the pastie with then shivering. Went for a long hot shower at the YHA afterwards, which in hindsight I should have done before getting food.
I managed 7:51 which I was pretty chuffed with, even managed Hardknott without stopping/walking.
