I saw BazP (who know from work), Lou Lou (who I recognised from her avatar as she passed me when I was toiling in the latter stages) and one other runner in Fetch top that I couldn't place.

Hope everyone is enjoying their well-earned rest and enjoying their refuelling!

Well after a very stressful race prep before the start. So much so that i almost dns the half...
I had a very pleasant 13.2 (wtf!?) mile run this morning!!

Saw a very skinny duchess and got a couple of hey Fetchie shout outs.

Perfect running conditions for the half, got a bit hot for the later marathon runners tho.
Hope everyone did OK xx

Baz, the prosecco was well earnt with a 2:53:20 Half, my first ever. I had hugs from Maz and Ellem on the course, and the biggest hug from katypie at the finish, while I whole heartedly sobbed on her shoulder in utter delight.

Organisation seemed better than in previous years, but possibly because of the heat the beer queue was ridiculous, to the extent that I went home without one.

I liked the keyring -i thought it was nice than the medal.

Hearty was a big factor today. I was doing just fine until the sun came out, although I don't think I can blame everything on that.
