24/1/2014

Hullo, I'm Neil and I'm gonna run the wall, all though you'll notice the question mark in my blogger name just in case I don't make it.
I'm a bit of an amateur having started running in 2011 doing the Cumbrian run half marathon, I then got into trail running doing the cross bay half marathon and the Karrimor great trail challenge marathon.
Since then I've been running the Lakeland trails series in the challenge events rather than the races.
Any way seeing as I survived marathon distance I'm gonna give this RatRace organised event a go (entered the 2 day challenge) running 33 miles on day one and 36 on day two.
At the mo I mix my training running on and off road with some gym work, usually a big run at the weekend hopefully increasing the mile age as I train.
Now the "big run" is up to 16 miles so that's the first half of the first day sorted, long way to go yet!
If any one does read this and you have any tips about running my first ultra or you know any one that does please let me know!
                                                   Cheers.
