Kew the Run HM

[Kirst13]

Thanks to everyone in marathon running and race support, Bridge to 10k and Couch to 5k for all your support along the way. I finished the HM in (and out of) Kew Gardens today. My first HM and I felt quite emotional, as I got near the finish line- I couldn't even manage all the 60 second jogs when I started Couch to 5k in January 2021.

Congratulations! You’ve come a long way!

Looks like it was a well-stocked goody bag.

They were being sustainable- no bag 🤣

[SkiMonday Ultramarathon in reply to Kirst13]

Did they include juggling lessons?

[Kirst13 Half Marathon in reply to SkiMonday]

Should have- got to my friend's bag just after the photo! That reminds me, someone was juggling their way around our parkrun in January- going very fast and keeping the balls in the air!!!!!

[SkiMonday Ultramarathon in reply to Kirst13]

That's impressive. I can't juggle, even when I'm standing still.
