but was actually rather grateful that I wasn't :) :)

Heavy, heavy rainfall continuously in these parts all morning and I'm not a particularly good swimmer ;)

Don't be too sad. You made the right decision. And there are so many half marathons. You'll be there. Don't worry.

Oh that was a close shave lol! I dont mind the rain, I dont mind it being a bit cold (like today) but the gusty winds nearly finished me off lol! There are loads of half marathons just waiting for you when you are ready!
