My strategy in the race was to break it down into sections and only concentrate on that section. If you ride for 1500 miles and think, “Oh my God, I’ve got another 1500 to ride” you’ll never get there. I broke the whole thing into 300-mile sections, and would only think of the next after each one was complete.

The RAAM is incredibly mentally taxing. There were some dark moments where I experienced overwhelming tiredness and even hallucinations. Self-belief helps you get through these, but often for me the crucial help was thinking about all the people who supported me. It’s a good idea to get a support group around you when you are doing anything like a sportive. Get them to invest in what you are doing. They really help you battle through during the difficult days.
