why hello there!! long time no forum chat...  i got a bit of post first marathon depression if there is such a thing. i aimed for a sub 3 hr and got 2:56:12....job done......not done a lot since and would love to have a go at this again. This is a great course, well organised....turkey farm at about 2 miles.....an industrial estate to run thorugh twice..... honest, loved the race. Fast legs was on form last yr...sub 2:50 if memory serves me right and Pipes was on good form too. Soz to hear about hip Pipes, hope you ok. I'm a 16lbs heavier than i was for abo 2010, still run but am struggling to do 7 min miles......will cut the ale out and have a crack me thinks.... |

| Great race, ran it in 2010 and set a PB....well, to be honest it was my first marathon so was going to be a PB whatever but that's a different story......i hope to do it again this year | |

| Hmmmm.....i'm on a bit of post-marathon downer if truth be known.......first marathon for me, got sub 3 hr.....hmmmm......have had a week of drinking and eating what i want , got a 5km next weekend and Reading half in the spring. I have analysed my race pace and was running 8 minute miles for the last 2 miles which in my eyes is a minute a mile slower than i should have been therefore there was a 2:54 up for grabs......could i someday get a sub 2:50......i wonder...... | |

Can I say well done all and my thanks especially to marshalls/organisers. The whole event was brilliant Am v chuffed to have gone under the 3 hr mark and will certainly hope to enter next year. Well, I played football during my work lunchtime on Monday......I had the turning circle of the Ark Royal!!! Crikey!!! Plan is to have a trot out tomorrow night. Gonna have the odd can of Old Speckled Hen ale  in the meantime...... | |
