Hi TytoAndy , as you're training for the GNR you might like to come over to the Marathon forum. 😀
Here's the link healthunlocked.com/marathon... and the description:

While I have absolutely no medical expertise, I wouldn't have thought anaemia would stop you from running a HM, especially since you're diagnosed and therefore presumably being treated.
I assume you're being treated for it? I'd suggest asking the medics treating you for their opinions on you running continuously for a couple of hours.
