Done it
Chip time was 1hr 52 02, which will do. First 10 went swimmingly. Miles 11 and 12 were horrible. Mile 13 is thankfully down hill
No wonder I didnt see you. 2.21. Mind you, Im 43, have been running for a year and 2 years ago I was 18 and a half stone. Completing it, despite being outside the 2.10 Ive done it in before is a massive achievement for me.
So 1800 entrants. 1 person managed to get confused by the change to grass for the home stretch and also be baffled by the sudden amount of people shouting encouragement. Resulting in a spectacular 'oops, where's the floor, oh shit this isn't going to be good, oh there's the floor it's on my face, now where are my glasses' moment.
Who do you think thats might have been? And who's wife managed to get a lovely photo of it? Which will be on line later.....
And my nips were fine into I submerged them in water in the bath. Christ that stung.
Anyway, current total for Leukaemia and Lymphoma research is 1053.22 + 253.75 gift aid so Im overjoyed at that.
I will be posting pictures and thanks, including a picture of me on my arse, later.
Thanks All.
