The event incorporates four different routes, covering 11, 20, and 32 miles, but George went for the ‘Plague’ 100K – 64 miles!
The route followed the famous Cornwall Coastal path, taking runners through stunning coastal scenery, over undulating paths, through fields, villages and surrounding countryside – it is not for the faint hearted!
George competed the gruelling 100k ‘Plague Ultra’ in very warm weather conditions – a great achievement!
