Its DONE!

 

On a far far hotter day than I would have liked I set off to run 26.2 miles.  From the start it was hot and it just got hotter.  I really enjoyed it up until mile 19 but from there on it was AWFUL.  Hot and very sore legs and a continual internal battle not to walk.  The supporters were AMAZING and I kept myself going by running a mile for everyone I care about.  When I saw Mike and Jamie just before mile 26 that was it; I cried like a baby all the rest of the way and was in floods by the time I crossed the line!  

 

My finishing time was 4:18:28 and I'm really proud particularly given the heat.

So thank you for your support and thank fudge it's over!

I'm running to raise money for Macmillan Cancer Support.  They were phenomenal in supporting my gran when she was diagnosed with cancer and as her illness progressed the help and understanding they showed us was invaluable.  I'm running to ensure that they are able to offer the same support to others in need.
