My thanks also to all at the drinks stations - really great job.
Have already signed the mrs & myself up for next year - can't wait (will probably also do the half in November).
Sorry for being unsociable and not meeting more of you.
Well done everyone, some good results considering the weather - was it just me or was the wind in out faces in both directions?!?!
I had a good run and managed to get 13th place in 2:59:09 - a minute or 2 slower than I'd hoped for but can't complain. Does anyone have any pics of me (116)?
Tattie
I had some good ones on Sunday and now they have been replaced by these wobbly ones which don't seem to work properly.
I did not spot your tandem. Where about on the camp site were you?
We were the little encampment with the white puppy and the growly collie.
Recovery - thinking of going to a gym for shot on the treadmill and other stuff ..not been there before but I feel ok cept I pulled off 2 toenails damaged doing FLM and Im going to lose big toe nail from Lochaber very soon.
Due to a blister taking over my right heal I'm laying off the running for a few days...
Managed some swimming and cycling so far...
Gorgeous blood blister on my left centre toe. My four year old had to watch me burst it. Yummy!
I had to burst them on Monday night as the pain was getting too much - not a pretty sight. Apart from that the only warwounds I have are one or two wee chaffed areas here and there.
Well done to all in that terrific heat, at mile 20 I couldn't take the heat anymore...so got out of the kitchen! but thanks to all those who gave me great encouragement along the way
It was great to meet people and be able to put faces to names!
Hilary thanks for the manning of the special drinks station, and please thank the children, they were great ;-)
Sue, sorry to hear about your club mate
Oooh Debbo, will you be cycling there next year then.......?!!
Nice to meet you MrsMac, i liked the way you had the strength to pull away in the last couple of miles.
I've about recovered now, played football last night but did'nt stay the distance ended up in goal, the legs had, had it !!!
Hippo - just plan the next one.
My monitor said I used up 3303 calories. I also have the permanent munchies. Even eating stuff I don't like. Weird!
I would take Lochaber over London anyday!
Hopefully I will be there next year also.
