How did we do guys? Not quite the time I wanted but struggled home to the B goal of a sub 2.40. Chest isn’t happy now so I’m hoping that slowed me a bit

Alun
11½ years after failing spectacularly to run sub 3:15 in the rain at Milton Keynes, I decided to take a punt at a club place in this year's London Marathon. The goal was sub 3 (hence my presence here) and I'm happy to report that despite struggling with an uncomfortable glute for most of the second half, I snuck inside my goal with 2:59:28. The time represents a 27 minutes 47 seconds PB. I'm over the moon but my quads and I aren't on speaking terms...🤣 Well done everyone who ran today! |

That’s a massive pb Alun, you’ve got to be super pleased with that. Thanks guys, my legs might take a few days to recover from that! The pace didn’t feel as easy as it should have from the start and the hips seized around mile 21. Not sure I have a feeling I didn’t drink enough which may have caused the hip issue? |
