The Grand Union Canal Race is an epic annual event on the UK ultrarunning calendar. At 145 miles it claims the title of longest continuous foot race in the UK and takes competitors on a journey from central Birmingham to central London along the canal towpath within the race's 45 hour time limit.
Having completed the race last year, albeit just inside the cut off, I was never really mentally able to relive the process in order to complete a race report. Coming back for the second time in 2007 we had the benefit of last year's experience in building a plan for the big day.
