JOGLE Ultra (Trans England) from John O'Groats to Lands End in 16 days 864 miles, England

15. stage at 05/04/2012 from Lostwithiel to Penzance, (day: 54.1miles / overall.: 854.4miles)

It was the next to the last day. Having breakfast and back on the road. It was obvious that the official 87 km (54 Miles) getting to be more than 90 km (56 Miles). The weather broadcast was wrong as well. Instead it was cloudy. Luckily there was no rain and no wind. Also today the course was quite wavy. It reminds me of the beginning of the race. Just there were more people living here. Instead of castle ruins we had ruins of the old tinning mine houses with big chimneys. Because of the mining the region was once the richest of the country. After some sight seeing I continued. Rory’s statement that it would be shorter was wrong. But I was used to that already. Jen ran with me on the last kilometres to Penzance. The finish line was next to the ocean promenade.

After having a small snack I went to shower. Also today we had them at a leisure center. Then we had Fish & Chips. The rest of the evening we enjoyed some wine at the bus.
