The report...

I got round and lived to tell the tale! All seemed like good fun at the start - enjoyed the bands and the cheering crowds and the fancy dress runners, until I hit about 17 miles. Then the cramp struck and the next 9 miles were pretty slow and painful. Was a relief to finish and I managed to overtake the giant chickens on the way to the finish line. 4hrs and 49 mins

Having told myself I'd never do it again - I'm not thinking that maybe I'd like to have another crack at it...watch this space

A big thank you to everyone who supported and sponsored me. Its all for a great cause
