Lucy Gossage completed the 268-mile ( 430km ) race with her partner last year .

But shortly after finishing, she discovered he had been cheating on her.

She decided to return to the race to gain some closure and went on to win it.

Here, in her own words, she explains how it has changed her life and definition of success.

I'd struggled with sciatica for eight weeks leading up to the race.

But I was never going to not start. Just getting there felt like I'd won. I'd spent all year training but I'd also been processing what happened.

One woman said it was like holding a mirror up because it resonated so much with her.
