The Mission: Run 100km before it’s too late

MY NEMESIS - PART 2: My old high school mate Pete, who was my nemesis cross-country rival, now has stuffed hips. In 2022 I challenged him to run Australia’s hardest 100k mountain run before he went in for hip surgery. I’d run it with him, film it, say positive things, and do my darndest to get him to the finish line. We made it to the 60k mark before missing the cut off. It was a great day, but it was also a DNF... After delaying hip surgery one more year to throw his hat in the ring one last time, we’re back, neither leaner or meaner, but keener, and with a new spreadsheet that should mean we make it to the finish line before they close the race. We had a plan, and having a plan is better than not having one. This is the story about a bloke who probably shouldn’t be running long distances, and does anyway.
