Dieppe Raid 50km challenge

Most of our guys did the 100km, which was more like 120km. Although I had entered the 100km long B4 my fall in Bristol, I decided that I would not tempt providence (in fact I never saw her). I was however spured on in the 5okm by 4 sweet Roses, they waited for me on the hills and made sure I had plenty to drink at our afternoon tea stop. Ten white wines and rasberry liqure? (never had it B4) but it went down a treat! In the end we did 38 hilly miles and were back at the award ceremony before 5pm.
My thanks also to my supporters from the cottage, each day I gradually increased my mileage during the week, starting with 15mls on the Monday to 46mls on the Thursday
