First imperial century tomorrow!

[Phil485]

Doing the wiggle new forest tomorrow. It will be my first 100miler, furthest so far is 83.
Looking forward to it but nervous. It's all in the head and I should do ok.
Anyone else going to be there??
I'll be in mostly black Team Ascendo kit, so feel free to say hi.

They say you should do 75% of the distance before the biggie; you've done more, you'll be grand. Good luck!

As what @HLaB said. You've done distance before so a small step up won't be a problem. Just a case of taking it easy. Making sure you eat and drink plenty.

And see you on the Century A Month Challenge for 2014.

Unless the 83 miler almost killed you ...

Have fun!

You'll be fine. Enjoy!

Thanks for all the support.

I am now a centurion!

Found a couple of good groups to ride with. Not certain yet of my official time, but my garmin showed 5:02 for the 102 mile course. Average speed 20.2, which I am absolutely ecstatic about.
A fun course too with horses, cows and pigs adding to the usual hazards.

 

[Bryony]

wow that is excellent you should be ecstatic!!

 

[Biker Joe]

Hey! Centurion.
You have good cause to be ecstatic.
Very well done. Congratulations.

 

[Pat "5mph"]

That was fast!
Congratulations on your first 100!

That's good for a first century.

In fact, it is a lot better than any century that I have ever done, and a 5 hour century is my ultimate target.
