Looking forward to my 1st half Marathon tomorrow. I've trained for it the best I could considering my dodgy knees and other commitments so no excuses. Volunteered at Parkrun this morning as a barcode scanner which was good. Didn't want to risk running. The weather for tomorrow looks good for the half. Just hope I can sleep tonight as I'm quite excited lol. Hope to just enjoy the experience and get through to the end intact! Will report back tomorrow

Good luck Dave - I ran my first a few weeks ago - didn't quite go off to plan for me but the valuable comments on the forum helped immensely - nothing to prove just enjoy it. Keep those knees going and finish.

Have a great time. Fuel and drink. I crashed on mine due to lack of fuel. Training may have been a factor as well...

Good luck, I’ll be willing you on, looking forward to hearing post race report 🏃‍♂️
