Wow - Tipsku, that's amazing; Clare, you continue to excel and Steve? You age like a fine wine. Well done to all of you. I'm not long since back from spectating - what an atmosphere - the other half ran a super race 3.47. 1.53 at half way and nothing faster than 8.36 and nothing slower than 8.41. I could learn a thing or two! Well done to all of you

Congrats to your other half, Oscar. Looks like she's a metronome, too. Very impressive pacing!

Someone in our club did a 3.59.59 too.... If I was the second runner you mention, I'd be mighty frustrated.

My first marathon (Chester 2016) I finished in 4:01.00. I had stopped to use the portaloo at mile 15 and including waiting for it to be free, I was stationary for 2m 37s. Not that I remember the times exactly out of frustration nearly 7 years later... |
