Just wanted to mention it but finally did 209km (130mls) in one day just over 8 hrs in prep for my LEJOG in June
Feeling a little fragile tonight hopefully will be able to walk tomorrow!

    Good effort and you should be pleased with yourself. I have been over the 130mile a few time this year already myself and know how you feel. If its any consolation you get used to it and feel better the more you do but alas at night you still feel washed out.

    Well done - the body recovers quickly (hopefully ! :D )

    After Tour of Flanders earlier this year (250kms) I could hardly walk that evening and definitely couldn't climb stairs at all. However all was well the following day.
