Anglesey Marathon

Watford Wobble A plod around this to 'bag' my Welsh marathon.  Race number 105.  Good grief how did that happen?  A big, phat PB.  Very hilly and warm in the first half.  Stomach cramps from mile 22 onwards.  No blisters or chaffing.

212 marathon runners / 151st position. Unaffiliated 3:27:46 4:21:53 4:40:00 4:21:53 49.03
Generation X Really good day if a little more sunny than would have been ideal. Race to plan until mile 23 when I simply had nothing left to give. Very satisfied with my new pb but still have the elusive 4 hour barrier to break. Maybe next year? Unaffiliated 3:51:42 4:01:00 4:01:00 53.28
Steve72 Got cramp in right hamstring again in EXACTLY the same place as last year! Had to stop and stretch again, slow down and stop a couple times in last 4 miles.  It must be the hills, never had cramp any other time.  The hills just kept coming, and very big some of them, a very tough course. Still managed to finish 12 or 13th or something similar I think and got trophy for first male over-35. Lovely weather, scenic course for the most part and friendly local-support. Well organised but not much of a goody bag this year. Incredibly close to my prediction, in fact I never really got cramp just wanted to be right so I pretended!  It's a flat marathon for me next year. Unaffiliated 3:05:35 3:10:01 3:10:00 3:10:01 64.81

roberton First marathon so found it pretty hard of course. But apart from at the drink stations I'm proud to say I didn't stop or walk at all. Went very slowly towards the end, but never actually stopped :-) FERC 3:59:35 4:51:00 4:45:00 4:51:00 42.32
Glevum Runner Tough course. Very undulating and was quite warm on the day. Gloucester AAC, Road Runners Club 2:51:30 2:54:52 2:58:00 3:00:36 71.69
WorkersPlaytime That hurt! hanging on for the last 11 miles wasn't what I planned, but this is still a great, if hard race. Great to meet Watford Wobble who can testify to the size of my blisters. Great run by Gen X too! Whitchurch Whippets 3:58:08 4:26:41 4:25:00 4:26:41 48.95
