Samarathon... and debut run over the distance too. Woke at 3.10am and had tea, sweetened black coffee and 2 Stoats before getting out at 4.50am. Took cycle tracks to Morecambe and seafront, before getting water from Morrison's. Back on cycleway to home for another water and gel before O&B to end of Caton path then finished down along Millenium and finished up at home.

Pleased with effort and felt relaxed for much of it. Last 5km or so were tough, but given my overall limited prep, it was pleasing indeed.
