Abingdon Marathon

Blisters

I've just come back from working in Sussex, OBL.

It's as flat as a pancake.

Have a great time, and I hope you go sub 3.

Thanks Rich and Blisters. I am definitely going for sub 3 (days). I've packed a head torch in case the nights are really dark, my main concern is not seeing the cliff edge!

My physiotherapist will have a fit this morning when I tell her I am doing it, but I honestly think she has worked her magic on me.  I hope everyone else has recovered well from Abingdon and are looking forward to their next run.

Still buzzing from a top race. The Fetchpoint was superb, and really gave me something to look forward to on both laps, thanks Rich K for the photos. I enjoyed this probably more than FLM - It must be the magic of the distance and the flawless organisation that makes it such a special event. Gotta get the legs ready for a quick half at Riverside now...

Chidge I started to crumple from 22 onwards so you may have been one of the many who passed me later. Finished in 3:12/13ish

postie postie - if we were level at say 18 miles then your 3:12 against my 3:19 suggests we have different definitions of crumpled!!!!

i keep trying to sign off this thread but dont seem able to let go - will try to make this the final post.
