Thanks for the positive comments. I can feel the muscles in my legs today, but no pain, as such, and my knees came though the ordeal with flying colours!
I was going to suggest doing half in one direction and half the other way round but since the job is done and dusted I won't bother.
That is a good point, although there would be a horrendous climb (called Trundlegate) with the route tackled in the opposite direction. I've only ever done Trundlegate twice in a single day, so five or six times during a 100 mile trip would certainly be a challenge!
Apart from that, I found that I settled into a pattern, and I don't think that (I personally) would have benefited from any disruption to it. Maybe one day I'll be fit enough to do all the circuits anti-clockwise, though!
Also just spotted that you posted it at 0153 and edited at 0222!
Strangely, I wasn't in any hurry to get to bed (which I eventually did at about 4:00am).

In a week's time you'll have forgotten that entirely, and you'll still be walking around feeling very pleased with yourself. Well done!
