Hot....yes that was one word for it. The car said 28 degrees on the way out once the cloud cover had appeared, my phone said 25 degrees. Either way that's just a bit too hot for me. Got to 19 miles and the wheels fell clean off. Fabulous race Samson, couldn't believe the sheer number of marshals, and a great level of enthusiasm from them too. Like the new route too. Will add some RW feedback tomorrow when I get a few more moments of spare time. |

Just seen a small mention of the Mabo Marathon on Look North BBC. I think there was SODIron doing a knees-up warm-up, and Plodding Hippo jogging past the camera in the middle of a group! They also mentioned that it's been 29 today, which is a record for Lincolnshire at this time of year
