WHAT A DAY!!!
Well my aim was to run the whole way around, which I managed. 4 hours 4 minutes and 3 seconds to be precise. Not only that but I LOVED it!! It was truly an amazing day and all the hard training paid off because I felt good right up until the 22 mile marker where things definitely did get hard, and I came face to face with the infamous runners "wall".....
I managed to dig deep and work through it, what with my stubborness and the support from the crowds making me feel like an olympic athlete (well I DID beat Matthew Pinsent by 3 minutes!!).
Thanks to all of you who have been so generous with sponsorship...between the 500 of us who ran for WhizzKidz we have raised over 1million pounds...fantastic effort!!
So, any of you who have always said you want to run the London Marathon, it really is achievable....and who knows, I might see you on the start line next year (well I have to do it sub 4 hours now dont I??!!)
