Pictures and Time Break Down

Wednesday June 4th

Here are some pictures of me taking part in the marathon together with a breakdown of my time over the course.

I haven't yet tried running again since completing the marathon, gave myself a full ten days off to recover. I felt awful last Monday and Tuesday and was still not walking 100% properly on Wednesday. By the weekend I was fine but still had a slight hamstring pull along the back of my left leg and didn't want to risk damage by running on it.

Off running tonight for the first time, will blog my progress.

NOW: Looking for next challenge to sign up to!

The breakdown shows I ran fairly consistently throughout, slowing by around what's expected during such a long race.

At the start: looking very happy. You can see the arm pouch bulging full of jelly babies and gel and the raspberry flavoured Zade in hand.

I like this picture: around 2-3 miles in and I'm running well.

Later on, not looking so happy but still trying to smile. This is around mile 16.
