Anisa has finished!

After an astonishing day's riding, Anisa has finished GBDURO20 at just before 10pm, bringing this year's race to a close in some style. With the finish line beckoning, she pulled out by far her biggest day, riding 207km in less time then it took her to ride 120km the previous day!

One of the highlights of this year's race was Anisa's enthralling battle with James, which raged across most of the UK until James started to edge away as they crossed Scotland. Meanwhile, over half the field of riders were dropping like flies all around, eventually leaving Anisa as the Lanterne Rouge, which seemed to spur her on for a grandstand finish. But GBDURO isn't about finishing places, it's about what you learn and prove to yourself along the way and how it changes you internally.

Anisa has captured the hearts of the dotwatchers and fellow riders alike with her truly inspirational reserves of determination to battle through adversity. The race gets harder the longer you're out there, as food starts to run out and mechanical and physical issues become more likely. On top of that, we suspect she had to ride the final 300km+ with only one gear! The prize from this kind of experience is greater than any finishing medal or prize money.

She's been off-grid due to phone issues, so we're looking forward to hearing some more stories from her race once she's had a beer and some rest.
