Got back about 6.45 tonight and am absolutely knackered....and delighted. Proper blog tomorrow.

I have an achilles as thick n flexible as a breeze block!

Report and piccies tomorrow after a good nights kip!

  • Short_n_Slow 'Well done, FANTASTIC TIME considering what you've been through the last few weeks, hope the achilles heals soon. Would have said hi but you were streaking off into the distance too fast! Saw you at about 1/2 mile overtaking everyone so i figured you weren't feeling too bad. Looking forward to the full report.' added 27th May 2008
