Not bad under the circunstances. I have an injuried leg from 3 weeks ago, plus parkinson's simptoms. But did 2:12:37 for 21km. Officially half crazy.

Nice result Markbit, congratulations!

I have run so much since I was young I know the times and I know how sometimes the fatigue makes itself felt.
