I struggled to get up this morning so did a few miles on the treadmill before stretch class then a few after to make it 10k. Forgot how hot running in gym is compared to my garage! 🥵 Not usually a treadmill fan but that’s 9 miles this week. Soo bored of the rain ☹️

Have just sat and watched marathon coverage since and tracking folks. Not too far for Paula to go.

Καλησπέρα! I have now regained the energy to start fetching again :-) I completed (slightly more) than 26.2 miles but I certainly didn't run much of it :-0 I started off running but after 6 miles added a few walk breaks and then by about 8 miles, thought 'D'you know what? I'm much happier and my knees are *certainly* much happier if I walk' - so I walked the rest of the way! The result is, my knees don't hurt at all, not even a little bit and although I'm tired (I certainly didn't stroll!) I'm not feeling wrecked.
And that's the end of my marathon career :-) Very very slow at six and a half hours but at least my WAVA is *just* over 50% which is respectable enough for me!
