This is good to read. I have a charity ride coming up in mid-September and I'm psyching myself out because it is 4 (imperial) Centuries over 4 days (fully supported and with a group of mixed experience riders). I can "easily" do a metric Century (not fast, in about 3.5hrs of cycling time) but it has been a while since I've done a full Century (2 years ago but after 5 previous days of approximately 650km total distance so my legs were in good condition by the time the Century day came around).
I need this type of encouragement to keep my head in the game.
