RunSub Err, Very Wind, & Very windy. Glad I ran in more layers than every before including my jacket. Had hail getting out the car for the start.
Targetted my GFA time, knew it was in the bag at 22 and didn't push harded than needed to.

Hinchy 1st marathon. After little training in the last month and a half prior, I wan't prepared fully. A big shame as training had been going well. 
Got cramp at 19 miles and had to walk the last 7. The weather was horrendous - rain and cold winds didn't help. Flet like giving in so many times but soldiered on and limped home in pain. Still I am very proud looking back - i kept going and made it. Conditions and preparations can't get worse than this. 
I will be returning to the usual half marathons for a while but I will do another marathon in the future and hopefully run it all!
