John set out on this incredible race on a Saturday morning with a group of friends from the Tring Running Club and finished the 100 mile run in 29 hours and 6 minutes coming in 42 nd place out of 500 participants! After retiring last year John decided to take on a new challenge and certainly found one with this event he said 'It was exhilarating and exhausting in equal measure. It was a great experience'.
From everyone here at IRHH many thanks and well done on such a great achievement John!
