Kona 24hour @ Forrest.

The 24hour was a good one for us, we had 4x entries, 2 teams in mens fours, a men’s threes team & a solo. Came out with a 3rd in the fours & threes which is tip top.

Apart from Marriners Run Sunday day loop I think the trails were run in reverse direction from last year, I hated that first climb outa transition – I think I made it once without bailing – and the tail end of the night lap with the road section, sitting out in the big chainwheel really brought home the chill in the night air.
A high was, as with many others – Marriners run. Mostly because it was a blast to carry so much speed through stuff without having to crank it out too much on tired legs.
Alex’s nudie lap & Rhys’s Lap kitted in full leathers & fighter pilot helmet was a gas.
I think we all had a ball… some others had two though….
