    ...............Legs were chomping at the bit to start the MP miles and felt nice and spritely by time they came around. Final two miles clocked in at:

    7.32, 7.30

    and felt great. Hopefully they will feel this way on the big day, couldn't find anything to complain or question myself on from this run. It was how I hoped it would go and gives me huge confidence heading for Rotterdam......


    Just bumping this up as promised :)

    Jaysus, you really do like a bit of drama ;)

    Glad to hear that you got over the line safe and in one piece. Great run today and hope you enjoyed the experience to boot. Now go and enjoy a few well deserved PB pints.

    Well done B, am absolutely thrilled for you. I was following the updated from here on the phone today and I was getting worried at the end but should never have doubted you! Enjoy the celebrations :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,237 ✭✭✭AuldManKing


    super work today - great time - very well done and well deserved. Delighted for you!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,346 ✭✭✭aero2k


    Well done B, absolutely delighted for you.

    Sorry for being so late to congratulate you - I was involved in a different kind of marathon yesterday but Firedance kept me up to date - I reckon your race took as much out of her as you:D

    How's the body today? Did you fly Ryanair?

    Cheers aero, she's some woman in fairness to her. Body is fine, legs are a different story. Both feet are destroyed with blisters, something I've never gotten before, and my hips are in bits but hey I enjoyed every step of yesterday and if Dublin is anywhere near as good in October I'm in for another great day. We're flying with Aer Lingus.

    Not too bad I suppose.

    What happened for the slow kilometre towards the end, you stop to comb your hair :)
