Following the successful vote on the poll we are going to have our own special 'Half marathon' and 'Marathon' badge. This can be achieved either by an official event or personal achievement, so either way reply here with your request or message me and I will add it...

Thank you, Jaxsy! It was a struggle... I was tired, and sore of throat. I had a really nasty stomach ache at around mile 5, had to walk on and off. But I made it in the end, and the finish is fantastic - a lap inside the football stadium! My mum was there waving her 'Go Ab!' sign And I still managed to sneak a PB, 1 minute and 27 seconds faster than last time
Absolutely fantastic, that's was one big effort to persevere- walking to recover is so sensible but sorry you had the horrible tummy early on💪🎈🎈🎈. Strong and fast then roseabi - congrats on your half marathon badge!
Must have been great to have seen your mum at the end and boasting a sign for you too....lovely mummy!
Can I have a half please. I've done several official, including Chesterfield and Worksop, and unofficial HMs by myself. I have Worksop Hallowe'en HM booked again - it's a good one 😀
Yes please. I haven't had a badge for ages, well a running one. so exciting. Please may I have a half marathon for last year. I'm hoping to do it all again on Sunday as well. Thank you so much.
Thanks Juicy Ju! Can I have one, pretty please, thank you. I ran the Worksop Half marathon back in October 2014. I do have a medal but it won't let me post a photo in this thread.
Over the last 3 years I got 2 marathons and a few (5) half, but I want to give this badge a new meaning, so I won't claim it just yet. I hope my next marathon with be the one, it will take a few months of preparation but we'll see
Ooooh cause I'm such a bling magnet can I have the half marathon badge even though I'm not running at the mo I miss running, but growing a human inside me is pretty amazing. I completed the Oxford Half last October
can you add Half Marathon to me please. I completed Great North run in just under 3 hours which isn't fast and I am very proud of my achievement..perhaps a marathon next?
You are right to be proud of that its a great time and a fantastic achievement... I would go for a marathon, but then I would say that!!! Badge assigned
hello juicy ju.... can i please change my badge from half marathon to marathon as i happily completed my first marathon yesterday. It was the greater manchester marathon and thanks for all the support from the community
