It was a great race to be a part of - running with thousands of people. It took me about 20 mins to get to the start line and I got to high five Mo who was standing on the right side. It was hard work running around people from the start to finish.
The crowds were great and were supporting you from start to finish handing out sweets, oranges, ice poles and even beer! There were quite a few bands along the way, people with hoses as well. I loved the boost zone hearing the cheesy music!
The weather was a bit crazy, started off as over cast, then had blazing sunshine and got quite hot and also had a few down pours of rain as well.
I was really pleased with my time 2.08.3. I came 17662 which I think out of 50,000 odd runners.
When I finished I had back ache so I know I need to do back exercises to build on muscle strength there.
I got a nice goodie bag at the end, another tshirt for the collection and a medal. I have now got to watch GNR which I recorded from the telly.
Folkestone half next!
