If you're looking for my time, it was a very disappointing 4:26, way outside the 3:30 target.  Should have trained in a sauna!

Record high temperatures in Chicago meant that they actually cancelled the race, which sounds like a wind-up when you've already run 20 miles.  I managed to get through, but over 10,000 were stopped by the police and race organisers as they decided that the heat was too dangerous. 

I'm sure next time I see you I'll give you the grossly exaggerated war story, but trust me it was bloody hot!

Thanks again for your support.
