Feck I have to go. I won't be back for (quite) a few hours. I'm going to miss the grand finale. Save me some champers.

Thanks for that Marie - Thought they were "Sitting on the Dock of the Bay" paddling in the water and swigging outta the Champagne!!!

I remember watching soccer and rugby on Aertel teletext when I was about 15. Good to relive the good old days.

Keep it going, Jo!

would that be km or miles I wonder?

Judging by the map you posted I'd guess at miles?

MarieC

I put approx location/destination into maymyrun and it looks like that may have been km! So she could be done within the hour(ish)!!

They've been reporting in KM all along no?

Yep that km's according to bingmaps route planner 6.4 miles. They have it as a 2hr 3min walk. SO NEAR.

MarieC

I'm out power-washing my garden, and have to keep running in every 15min to see how she's getting on!!

Anyone know if RTE will be there to greet her at the finish? Surely!!

DubMedic

It is a safe bet that HM's next post will be post of the day, & rightly so.

It has been a rough trip.
It may not be over yet, but it is one to be proud of.
Fair play to you Jo, you can do it.

donothoponpop

circa 6k left. Come on Jo!

henryporter

Just going out for a run to celebrate - well done Jo: Huge huge achievement and for a great cause.
