Go-KL May do this if definitely cannot do London.

Taunton Marathon. Finished third in a new PB! Had a really good race, perhaps a bit too fast for the first mile (had planned to go out at about 7 minutes but was so easy to get into running). Legs felt good for the first half of the race when I finished the first lap in 6th position. Struggled a little with an aching left hip between around 14-19 miles but that eased off. The planned push at 20 miles turned in to more an effort to try and keep things going. By then I'd moved into fourth position, and the site of the third placed runner at 23 miles kept me going. Struggled up the final two hills then the wheels fell off a bit in the final mile with a painful stitch, but nevertheless really pleased with run and just a bit gutted not to go under 2:50. Weather: partly cloudy, slight breeze, around 12-15C by the end of the race. Grantham Running club 2:40:47 2:50:23 2:52:00 2:50:23 71.74

smoke free At time of writing (DEC 28th!) training is a little behind due to weather/snot/job but still confident of chasing 3.30. plureeese knees.....UPDATE RACE RESULT. ahead of target right up to mile 23. then the wheels came off!! Still chuffed to bits with a massive PB and perhaps the course needed a little more respect, deceptively tough. Great though. Unaffiliated 3:14:10 3:33:05 3:29:59 3:33:05 60.76
