Hi
Well after all the uncertainty of whether to defer due to injury and illness, I still went for it and was glad I did! From the start the leg felt ok, was a bit worried when had to stop at 12 miles for 'comfort break' that I wouldn't be able to continue but managed to get back into it after about half mile. Ran past hubby and kids at 7 & managed to stop to say hi at 17 miles which was boost I needed. Walked more than ran towards the end but managed to do it in 5.16.
Enjoyed the whole day, the crowds were amazing and so supportive. Couldn't believe how quick it all went!
Trying to enter Virgin site to enter for next year but the systems crashed. One thing I will be taking next time is Imodium, I think we'll leave that there!
Hope everyone enjoyed it x
