This past weekend Russ and I and 2 friends ran The Pony Express race in the New Forest. A 2 day Ultra, 30 each day.
The race is put on by a great group of people, Extreme Energy, XNRG
We have run several of their other races so we knew it would be a well run and well supported race.
They did not disappoint!
The weather was perfect which goes along way to making a great race.
My goal for these 2 days was to check out how my training for TranseGaule was coming along.  I am happy to write that I felt great both days. No injury before, during or after the 2 days. Each day was 30 miles of trails.  I am not much of a trail runner and have not trained on the trails at all.  But it was still great fun. Lots of mud and lots of ponies to look at and even the opportunity to get lost, having missed a turn.
So I still have about 2.5 more months of training before TranseGaule and I think so far so good!
