This was my first marathon and it was great. I didn't reach my target time (to go under five hours) but I finished in 5:25.57. I got to that dreaded 20-mile point and then my legs got very heavy.
I used a combination of running and walking after that. I will be back next year hopefully - I hope to get sub-5:00 and hopefully my husband will join me too. I think I have inspired him!
It was a great day, and a great thing to be part of! Well done to everyone who took part.
I hope that LOTTIE (I don't know your number but I saw you being aided by St. Johns around Mile 25) continued to make it to the finish!
