It was tough from the 16th km on for me, but only because I hadn't trained enough. Great run though, I hope it's on again next year.

The biggest challenge was restraining tears from seeing so many beautiful, brave, generous people on the way. I'm a wuss.

You made it! Hurrah! Well that’ll kick Gary into touch, he won’t know what’s going on!

Sadly I didn’t get to meet up with AncientMum , so many people....but we did the job, that’ll confuse Gary even more, have his head spinning, us all in different places - even at the same event! Ha ha ha,

Yup, I did... Gary has met his match. Pity you didn't find Ancient Mum. Everyone looks the same though, it's really difficult unless you call each other or have a meeting place:)

Cheers Juju. It SO nearly didn't happen... My second real life meeting with someone off the forum was a real pleasure. This virtual space makes links between real people, it's awesome. We admired the organisation of the loos and I said that loo organisation in France is crap... RFC told mea bout your experiences in Paris...

This was the first time I'd run in the UK, I was nonplussed by the lack of queues for anything and the huge number of loos along the route. In France I've got used to limiting the amount I drink before the run because of the wait for the loos. I didn't wait any more than two minutes, and that was to pick up my runner pack. Amazing!
