Wow, there is so much to be said about the race itself.  I could write pages and pages and still not cover half of what it is about.  What I will do is to try separate the race itself into different aspects and write a bit about each of them.  Just click on the appropriate link to read more about each aspect.  Please remember that this is based on my personal experiences and that there are many other ways to run this race I’m sure.

OK, here goes . . .

• Getting to the start
• Practical considerations
• Pacing charts
  
• Different approaches
• Busses (Target time finishes) - the Pros and Cons
  
• Mental considerations
• Body checks
• Hanging in
• The finish
  

I hope that you have found this information useful.  It has worked for me!
