Well, I did it. The time wasn't too shabby either about 2,33 I think, I forgot to stop my watch. Just a minute outside my PB I think which all things considered I am more than happy with

I was OK til mile 11 when my right quad tightened really badly and I guess this is where the lack of training showed.

I persevered and didn't walk and that last mile seemed to go on forever.

It was a lovely flat course and the support was amazing. They had wet sponges too which was fab.

So glad I didn't pull out now.. I'm shattered and ache everywhere but am very proud.

Thanks to you all for your support yesterday.

Ps... No idea why my photos won't load the right way round πŸ˜ƒ
