Did the Around the Bay 30K race in Hamilton last year and it nearly killed me. I don’t remember ever having been so tired in my life. Everything was good for 22K (the distance I ran in training) and then at 24K I hit a wall. Now I know that I actually have to run the distance before the day, otherwise my body thinks it’s time to shut off—which runs counter to the philosophy that you should train up to a distance of 65-75% of the race distance when dealing with marathons. Oh well, live and learn.
