I won't lie ..it was like nothing I have ever done,, bu I had a terrific time and the forum friends at that finish line... made it extra special!
You were so right... we don't know what will happen on the day... and a fresh headwind was a tad challenging...but I am so glad I did it... Thanks you for that brilliant plan!
Congratulations on completing your first Half marathon Floss, I am sure you enjoyed your run today, lovely photo of the view from the viaduct, just hope that you didn't bump into anything when in one of those 3 tunnels which you told me about yesterday, once again, congratulations to you for today's HM. 😊 🏃
You now could have the two words Half Marathon next to your username 😊 🏃, but as you are an Administrator for C25K I'm not so sure if that would be possible.
Toot!Toot!deToot! And here comes Oldfloss, our fearless leader, crossing the finish line in her first ever HM! Whoohoo! Pom poms a-waving! Congrats on a great achievement!
CONGRATULATIONS! YOU DID IT! I am so, so sorry I wasn't there to congratulate you in person - indeed, to cheer you on! But life, plans etc. But what a fab achievement! You are just awesome! xx
Wow great view floss! I thought of you today (I was a a charity race too)and hoped you were having a brilliant time, look forward to the race report xxx congratulations lovely lady xxx
Don’t reply, you deserve that rest now, can’t wait to read your report later but just wanted to say Brilliant OF, what an achievement, you’re awesome! 👍 ❤️ Xx
You know there are a lot of people waiting on the C25K forum for an announcement from you, great lady, even if we have to wait for the run report.........
Fabulous! It's wonderful to 'hear' your own sense of pride and achievement in this run. Usually we're hearing you tell us all to be proud, so it's great to see the tables turned for once. Looks like a wonderful, if challenging race too. Rest well
Ha ha. Well..I did say..this would be the only one..but then again....I did say I would only ever run 5K! I do fancy the Tissington Trail one...a lot!!!
Congratulations, Oldfloss! Hope you’ve had a good rest and not too sore this morning! What an inspiration and not a bad photographer either!! 🎉🎉🏃🏼♀️🏃🏼♀️💪🏻💪🏻🐌🐌
Might be a loopy snail but loads of folks are very fond and proud of you as you always have the capacity to spur us on. Is that your son in law on the photo. You didn't try to keep up with his long legs did you.
Haha...no..Yes it is..he is super. He is very speedy..But he just would not leave me....He is very protective...and he wanted to run it with me..he only ran faster to the line to take photos! It was a super day..I am blessed..😉
I id.. thanks for all your support and reply to my report... I am just catching up with everyone today... folk have been so, unbelievably, wonderfully supportive!

I am just catching up with everyone on here today... folk have been so, unbelievably, wonderfully supportive! I did not want anyone to think I did not appreciate them!
Thanks for your reply to my report post on Bridge...I thought about you as you know.. kept getting little messages in my head!!! x
Dearest Floss, of course you did it! I hope you did it slowly and steadily and that you were not injured! I am looking forward to your write-up! Love, Pippi (I had to follow this forum again to leave a comment!)
I'm okay, Floss - my hip is what it is - no change there, still that painful osteoarthritis. I don't believe I'll ever be running again. But I'm coming to terms with it. It's not helping me to hang my head an cry.
