This one has put me back on the bench for a bit, but at least I got my mate round in sub 3.
Morticia, you did brilliantly. I thought you said you were feeling in a 'slow' mood!!
(Have you thought about starting a Greenway Appreciation Society??!).
WWN, thanks, and well done to you. I'm sure the kids would love Blackpool. The main thing that puts me off is the fact it's in June, and I really don't like it too hot. Perhaps people can persuade me it's not too bad because it's cool near the sea or something?
Hippo, I'll gladly shoot Scooby Doo for you if I can find him.
How are everyone's legs today?
I meant to say I was so relieved about the weather yesterday. I was sure it was going to be too hot, but it was perfect, (apart from a tiny bit too much headwind on the G****W**). I'm almost glad I didn't get into FLM this year now, after hearing all the horror stories of people wilting in the heat.
I think I need to get a job which is more friendly with the hours first. I've only been able to do one run per week. But seriously I don't mind 2hr runs, however I've not enjoyed the runs longer than 2hrs. So I think that half maras are going to be my limit.
Strangely I enjoyed the 2nd lap more. I don't know if that was because I was walking.
This was my third marathon in three weeks (after Paris and London) - started off slow and finished feeling full of running - pleased to have got round in 3:39:10 (9 minutes faster than London) - Three Forts Marathon next Sunday (recovery permitting).
That's One of the reasons we just don't collect anything
Besides, we are not in it for momentoes
Phillips bedroom is a gallery of A3 framed photo's and medals...
some in front romm
it's now just run to live ... and live to run
I think its greatly helped by the fact that stratford is a genuinely nice place to spend a weekend. Ironically I thought the off road stretch was the worst bit - god it drags on horribly (that same stretch is used in the night and day marathon so it had an air of grim familiarity)
good that it wasn't dead pan flat and there where at least a few very mild climbs and downs.
I was surprised by how much support was on the course, great atmosphere.
Some really nice pubs around atratford to - stopping at 4 pints the night before was nearly as difficult as the run.
i do know.. it's just i don't know how to direct you there
But if you go back a page or two and clink link that i did
I've just had a look...clink link om page 61
Sorry if I was rude or didn't get a chance to stop and talk (especially between miles 19, 20, 21) was struggling a bit by then.
OOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWWW OOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW OOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW
