I DID IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Piglet7969]

OMG i'm in total shock i completed the GNR yesterday, wasn't pretty in the end my ankle went about 8 miles, and my friend who I've been training with kept stopping about 10 miles, and in the final mile i literally had to push him to keep him going, but we did it 3hrs 20 seconds.

thank you so much for the support and encouragement from this site, your kinds words really helped.

i did it for my dad an father in law and i know they both were supporting me to the end xxx

PS don't ask why i only have one slider on i haven't a clue LOL

Brilliant job. Well done for pushing your friend along. It must have slowed you down a bit but your priorities are spot on.

Yay, well done Piglet! 🎉🏅🏃‍♀️ I recorded it and was watching it on tv yesterday evening. It looked like an amazing event - and what weather! 😍

Great day for the GNR. Hopefully now you can see how the pre-run anxiety is all worth it. In spite of the injuries its sounds like you had an amazing experience.

Congratulations Piglet! Really well done. It was hard work in that sun yesterday wasn’t it?!

[Piglet7969 Half Marathon in reply to Colinsmith]

it was really warm, started out ok but then just got warmer, was lovely on the sea front through x

[Colinsmith Half Marathon in reply to Piglet7969]

I think getting into the start pen a bit too early didn’t help me; it wasn’t so much the heat as the direct sun for an hour before and then all the way round. I’ll pack a running cap and extra suncream next time!

[Piglet7969 Half Marathon in reply to Colinsmith]

how did your run go yesterday? there was a stall giving out sun screen we passed when walking through from where the buses dropped off
