A selection of 45 of the UK's most experienced and promising ultra runners took on the physical and mental challenge of covering the greatest distance they can in 24 hours, making as many loops of the track as possible in the Self Transcendence 24 Hour Track Race. Nick Holt was up for the challenge and with his wife Sallie as support crew headed off to London for the event which has been run since 1989. Nick said "At 12 o'clock on the 17th September, I started the Self Transcendence 24 Hour Track Race at Tooting Bec. 378 and a bit laps later, I finished (with Sal who'd been supporting me the whole time at my side), smiling, but very, very sore. 151.472km or 94.12 miles. I would have loved to get to the magic 100 but I quite simply wasn't good enough on the day. It's a raw, stripped down running event but it's brilliant, incredibly well supported and at £49 entry, I defy you to find a better value for money race anywhere in the world. I'm very glad I've done it, and no, I won't be back next year...happy to crew for a fellow Wallasyean if anyone fancies it though...". That's an amazing 378 laps, well done Nick.
