I DID IT!
My big toes are now both blisters, and I have cramp in my little toe (and have done for a while).
Full race report to come in the next couple of days but considering the rain, wind, humidity, blisters and hills I was thrilled to come in at 2h59!

Thanks Stephen, despite the weather it was one of the most inclusive and friendly events, which made the horrendous weather less horrendous

Thanks linda - I really think the crowds and people got me round, Iβm by no means speedy (as proven by 2h59!) but support was huge even when I was running.
