Wow, they must be made of something extra special, and built like whippets, certainly not for me.......well, I could run that far, although it would take me a month or so.....😂....with sleep/eat breaks etc.,

Made of some special stuff to be sure! But just to put into context, a Dutch fellow I follow on Stava who is a superfit enduro runner (and who did a "short" 60km "taper" run last week) only got to the 90k mark before having some issues. So it happens to the best of them. If you're having a bad day there's not much to be done about it! So it happens to all us mere mortals, having a crappy run can happen to anyone.

Ha, ha! "Only" got to 90km! Just reread that and it sounds a bit harsh!
