    Well done! Did the leprechaun on the bike do the whole thing?

    Well? How you all do?

    And wasn't it amazing that the same guy won the last Derry marathon in 1981 !

    How fit is he!

    He won it in '84 and '85 ;)

    What an amazing day. The atmosphere and support were fantastic. Got round in 4.19 :D

    4:19 here - after fighting off an ITBS knee injury that meant I couldn't train for the last 3 weeks. But delighted indeed to finish and run all the way. My first marathon.

    Tough - and hillier than I thought - I don't live local and we don't have a lot of hills where I live.

    Amazing and warm support indeed. Highlights include the flute band, the Little Irish Dancers, the rave music, the run down , the Salvation Army in uniform all clapping for us, the jelly beans and cups of water that the residents of that housing estate just off the Caw had set up (Waterfoot Park??) plus, as someone said, the absolutely amazing support going up Fahan Street. I was literally willed up through the walls!!!

    It felt like being at a moment in history.

    Congrats to all the finishers!
