Race To The Stones 100K

Rachel Stanley-Evans 10.44.00 5th Lady 1st FV40
Lisa Butler 11.35.54 2nd FV40
Toby Clarke 11.35.54

As you may know 🙂 a number of Witney Road Runners a few weeks ago ran Race to the Stones.  We entered a Witney Road Runners team for the non-stop 100K which consisted of Rachel Stanley-Evans, Lisa Butler, and Toby Clarke. The rules stated you needed a minimum of three members in a team to cross the finish line, the recorded time is when the third team member crosses the finish line.  Witney Road Runners recorded a time of 11 hours 35 minutes and 54 seconds.  We found out only recently that we won the team event, the first team to cross the finish line.  But that’s not all we also got told that it was a new course record the previous record was 12 hours 12 minutes and 49 seconds.  We took some photos after they sent the trophy please see attached.  I would not normally talk about it let alone email but I am enormously proud of what we achieved that day on behalf of Witney Road Runners.

Race To The Stones 50K

Francis Tracey 5.48.20

Wendover Woods Centurion 50K

Ben Lonsdale 7.46.00

I have Ultra Trail du Mont Blanc coming up in a few weeks, which is an evening start. Centurion Running had put on a night 50k race coinciding with their Wendover Woods 100 mile event this weekend, so I took the opportunity to practice running while tired. The Wendover course is three 10-mile laps, each with about 3000’ of climb (and, more critically, descent) with a short loop at the start to make it up to 50k.

We started at 2300 on Friday, with the 100 mile runners having been going for several hours already (can you imagine doing 10 very technical loops with that much height climbed?). I got carried along for the first few miles, trying to keep pace with those around me and pushing myself more than I normally would, with it being a relatively short race. It was a good mix of (rarely flat) tracks, technical and root-covered single track and off-path climbs through the woods, with an aid station at 5.5 and 10 miles on each loop. I got through the first lap in sub-2h15, which was slower than I had expected (having failed to account for the terrain) though faster than I should have done.

I carried on to lap 2, still more or less by myself. I was determined to push myself, and carried on (slowly) running the flats, and letting myself go on the technical and dusty descents. Being alone brought the benefit of not having dust kicked up in front of my headtorch but meant it was easy for morale to dip. The usual pattern emerged of runners passing me as I slowed, and I made the effort to stick with each group for as long as I could as they came past. The eventual podium all flew past me near the end of lap 2 (including Dan Lawson, the best (very) long male distance runner in the UK at the moment), which was pretty fun. By the time I finished lap 2 at 0400 though, the effect of pounding 15 stone through my lower limbs on the alternating technical and track descents was beginning to tell on my joints. Conversely, the strength training had paid off and my muscles were feeling pretty good. Time to muster some willpower and crack on.

With lap 2 taking 2h45, I decided to push on and try and hit 2h45 again, or at least less than 3 hours, to finish by 0700. Unfortunately, circadian rhythms being what they are, I was a mile in to lap 3 when the sleep monsters caught up with me and I slowed down. Fortuitously, my friend Steve (companion for the second half of Lakes in a Day 50 mile a few years ago) and Sinead soon caught up with me too. With Sinead running a very well judged evenly split race, I jumped on and stuck with them through to the aid station. By this time, it was light enough not to need a headtorch, and it was nice to see the terrain. With a few digestive problems however, I couldn’t match their pace and dropped off the back. After an emergency stop deep in the woods however, I felt much better, moving strongly for the final section (and actually overtaking people!), coming in before my 7 o’clock target and close to my target lap time.

It was a good lesson in the importance of mental resilience in maintaining pace. While you have physical challenges occasionally (stomach issues being prevalent in longer distance events), the fact that my fastest split for the final leg was on lap 3 is indicative that your body can normally take the strain as long as you can convince your brain to let it. Of course it helps if you have a healthy diet and train well too, but I haven’t learned those lessons yet!

74th of 117 starters on 7h46.
