Not quite on alpenrose's level, but pleased to report I've just passed through the 200 mark :-) Just 39 to go to hit my 2017 target :-)

medal for kwala. :) You'll smash that!

I passed my 600 today. The race went well, I was on course for a pb in the first half but slowed considerably in the second and managed to get in just under 2 hours. I was pleased that I managed it with hardly any walking up until the last mile and a half when the bastard hill appeared near the end. ;-)

medal AR
I ran most of my half today, came to a stop at mile 9 to take a stone out of my shoe and then took a couple of walking breaks between 10.5 and 12 miles so that's something I can work on. Pretty happy with my time as it was last race this year.
