Thanks so much James – I really appreciate it! The funny thing is, even though my first mara was so awful, as my right shoe hit the finish line, my first thought? ‘When can I do this again.’ This is mara 2. Thinking about another in the Autumn and have a trail half and a 50k trail race in the meantime…..

Have been looking forward to your recap…a 35 minute PR is freakin’ incredible! Enjoy all the post-race pain, laugh about how you thought you’ll never sign up for another and start looking for your next marathon challenge 🙂 Big time, well done and Cheers!!!

That’s brilliant, I’m so happy for you!!! And those pesky niggles, yep, sometimes they do come out of nowhere – just one of those things! So what’s next for you? And wishing you a good recovery!

I still have not been able to put anything into words.First half was great for me. Then turning right after Tower Bridge – seeing all those runners on mile 22, got me and I started to get a niggle in my ankle (which I never had before). You are right 16-21 was hard, especially when there are less people walking. But then the last 2 miles seemed to go on forever. Ran the majority – but second half let me down with my ankle throbbing (just don’t know what I did to it). Finished 5:51:57.
