I am pleased to report that I finished the marathon in 5 hours 15 mins. I was really hoping to finish in under 5 hours but I just couldn't have done any more! I am going to blame it on a combination of the heat (it was soooo hot), my broken toe and the long queues for the toilets!The support from the crowds was amazing and it really made all the difference. My eldest child Regan was my inspiration for running the Marathon and so it was fantastic to see him and my other two children in the crowd waving their "Good Luck Mummy" banners.
I was going quite well up until about 22 miles, then it all got really nasty! At one point I got overtaken by a rhino but I simply couldn't live with that and so I did a little sprint to get back in front!
