    Some amount of treadmill running by hunnymonster in the two weeks before xmas, bumped into her after she finished the last one & you wouldn't even know what she's just done!

    Looks like a Guinness WR is on the cards & over €10k raised for the neo-natal ward in the local hospital.

    Artilce on the Running in Cork blog is here.

    Incredibly consistent times too. All between 3:53 and 3:55 if memory serves me right.

    Most were 3:55 with the slowest (just!) of 3:57 & the last one, obviously a sprint finish, of 3:51!

    And to think I was a bit concerned about running the Limerick marathon the day after a half marathon next May, that amazing sequence of marathons has cured me of that :)

    That's mighty impressive. Well done to her. While the consistency would be more manageable on the 'mill than on roads, it's still some achievement to be able to keep that same pace over that number of days.

    Thanks guys. The consistency is much easier when the pace is one you're very comfortable with. In fact the small variations are due to the toilet breaks rather than a change in running pace. It was a very enjoyable experience.

    That's some achievement ! Outside of the very obvious running achievement, don't know how you found the time with two small kids ! Well done
