Lovely course and great day, apart from the 30mph winds and hitting the wall at 23 miles. Hobbled on to complete the marathon in 3hr 45 mins.

Thanks to all those who sponsored me, it did make it less painful, and for the rest of you there's still time to get in on the act!

Good work Jonny, G, Claire, Tracy, Chris, Valerie, Nan and Smithy who have contributed off line, and further pledges yet to be added from Forbes Snr and Pikey, totalling £125.

Webby, your turn to run next year.
