As I'm injured and cannot run at the moment I turned up to watch, borrowed a yellow bib and helped marshall at the finish. I'm not even a member of Wilmslow Running club, but in the spirit of the running community we all help each other don't we?
Talking to a couple of my clubmates they all seemed to enjoy the race.
A few years ago I stubbed my foot and broke my two little toes on my right foot. Two days later I ran the Amsterdam half-marathon with it strapped up and dosed up full of pain killers.
I say ran, I hobbled round in excruiating pain and because the rest of my foot was trying to compensate, I ended up breaking a metatarusal bone too. And unable to run for 6 weeks.
So my advice is not to do it, there are always other marathons to run.
