    Great summary Simon. I'm still preparing mine 🫡 I love the way you describe the experience so positively. You acknowledge the suck, but you celebrate the struggle. That's what makes you stronger. Also, what you accomplished is just mind-blowing. You most definitely have talent and this is just a testimony to what you're able to do. I'm for ever thankful you said yes to when I proposed running this course. I went in there with the mentality to test myself and I definitely did. I'm looking forward to more runs, brother. Salute and congratulations 🎉

      Well said my dear friend!
      I describe it so positively because it indeed was a more than positive experience for me. Shared suffering with you and so much I could learn about myself from this
      The suck is part of the game and without it, would it even be worth doing this kind of stuff?
      On to the next one Brother 🫡
      Can’t wait for your video!

    impressionnant ton récit 14 h / 130 km , une très belle moyenne . Le corps a des ressources que nous n imaginons pas . Tu t est dépassé physiquement et mentalement . Par contre est ce que tu penses que ce n' est pas trop traumatisant pour le corps ?

      Merci mon ami.
      Je suis tout à fait d’accord avec toi que c’est un tel effort qui demande beaucoup de ton corps. Une bonne récupération après est indispensable, c’est ce que je fais maintenant
      Je reprends avec une petite séance de tractions demain, par contre je ne fais pas encore le bas du corps

      @@duncanwalshfitnessweightlo9329 thank you so much Duncan!
      In fact my weekly mileage was nothing extraordinary, probably around 30-40 miles
      I just said to myself that it would be best to accumulate as many runs as I could
      My longest preparation run was a 30KM run
      To be honest I did not feel prepared perfectly but this was also not my goal, since I was also well aware that you can never feel fully prepared for an event like that!
