17:57 - 9th OA - 7th male - 93sec back from 8th 
Holy shit what a day (and night). Dumping rain at the start, then blaring sun on the first climb, then dumping rain, then monstrous hail, sleet, graupel, snow, thunder, lightning, and mud caked descents at 1000ft per mile. 25 degrees on a snow covered Bridge of Heaven summit at 5am. Last climb damn near broke me and I thought my hopes of finishing under 18hrs were shot, but then somehow turned it around once I started moving downhill after a mile or two and gave er hell to the finish to somehow sneak under 18 (and was giving everything I had to try and catch 8th). 6:35 pace on the last tenth of a mile sprint through the traffic cones because this race was fucking sick. Huge thanks to my one person crew - Ellen Bransford  - I couldn’t have done this without you. Your support means everything ❤️ Longest race I’ve ever done by a factor of ten hours.
