you’d be surprised at how much energy many people have after doing a long run, the endorphins and the high keep you going. Its the next morning that’s hell!
Yep all of this. Best part of the race is the activity afterwards. Just hope that the Tavern is open lol.
Plus a lot depends on how people take the race. Suspect most people doing this won’t be PB hunting. If you run 1-2 minute a mile less than full pace you’ll have lots of energy left.
I really hope they get a good turnout as even though this is not a park run initiative, stuff like this improves the parks profile.
