Time: 4:59
I don't know where to start........
What a fantastic day, although the weather could have been kinder as I
struggled to keep warm before the start. I found the whole thing really
emotional, so if someone in a BHF vest started crying after you called out
her name that would be me!
Surprisingly enough I didn't hit the wall, although at one point I felt like
if I went any slower I would be going in reverse. Managed to speed up
towards the end although was disappointed to be overtaken by the camel in
The Mall. Just beat my target time of 5 hours (4.59.58).
Hubby didn't manage to see me despite chasing round London to be in 3
different places. The crowd support however was fantastic, and I don't
think I could have done it without all the cheering (don't even consider
running without having your name on your top).
The best bit for me was Tower Bridge. I couldn't believe how many people
were crammed onto it and I swear they were all shouting for me.
I said it was a one-off so maybe next year I'll have to be in the crowd.
