Comments:

10 gels, hydration drink and water.
What would you do differently?:

Ensure watch reset after tunnel.
more solid food at start, e.g. sandwhich or dates.
really make sure you stay easy for first 90km, slow and steady to leave lots of power for later on.
Post race
Warm down:

Meridien Hotel 5 star buffett lunch

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Not knowing the course, get to the front at the start of the hills.

Event comments:

Brilliant event, well run, great course, last 70kmh tough but good experience.
