    Thanks so much folks!! Just presented with my 'First Female' medal :D Who would have ever thought??? Certainly not me!!

    Mileage wise it was a bit down on what I initially hoped for, but to be very honest, the win means much more to me than an extra few miles. It was a tough tough tough 12 hours and a lot of mental and physical battles were fought.
    Just .05 under 63 miles I think, but official results not in yet. Not a bad day's work :)

    'Ultraslo' maybe?

    Ah great stuff A, delighted for you! You looked so comfortable the two times I saw you, I was in the park walking two laps with a mate coming to end of his first marathon around 4pm (he found it tough going but he got it done). I said a quick hi to you but I was wary to disturb you to be honest as you were so steady. We were back to the playground with my daughter around 6:15/30pm after the 6 hour runners finished and I have to say you looked very comfortable and steady after 6 hours on the clock. Well done and happy to hear the event went so well for you.

    I don't think anyone can argue with that sentiment. Race report?
