Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,

Boycie BET BET BET - check out previous times - providing i am not injured or ill, I will smash my marathon time! UPDATE: Let's try and focus on the positives. I finished 15th out of over 1000 starters, beat my PB by 18 minutes and ran sub 7 min miles. Despite that I feel really disappointed with my run. I was determined to run a sub 3 hour and so qualify GFA for London next year and sadly I didn't quite do it. The weather was most definitely to blame, having not run in temperatures much about 13c all year, it suddenly decide to have the sun glaring down on us and it must have been close to 20c. Combine this with a course that is every bit as dull as people warned me about before hand and sadly I couldn't quite manage it. Big shout out to Trumpton Riots, who rode with me for nearly 2 miles on the Greenway, when I was ready to give up and he got me to the stage where I was able to run to the finish (granted at a somewhat slower pace than I had managed for the first 18-20m) I will blog some more thoughts later...

darkhorse Will be my 4th attempt at the marathon and probably my last serious attempt at a fast time. Still dreaming of sub 4 but refuse to put pressure on myself. Bloody hot but at least managed my PB. Now changed my mind will have another go at sub 4

Foxy Another good ady at the office :) i had certainly found some consistency running a fraction quicker than I did in London 2 weeks previously. i met up with Duncan part way around the course but again at about 10 miles he went away from me & i couldn't stay with him, but the same as Bratislava i reeled him at about 18 miles & went on ahead, I started to struggle over the last 5 miles which were mainly along a deserted old railway line going past the racecourse. i did have to walk a minute at 23 & 24 & for 30 seconds at 25 miles. no t-shirt unless you bought one but a lovely medal featuring an abstract design of the Bard. I ran in my Nationwide t-shirt as a thank you for all of their help with sponsorship :)

Jogging Jon Enjoyed the race, really good course. Found it hard going in the second half, but once I decided no chance of time I decided to treat the race as long slow run for the White Peaks marathon will do it again one day.

Johnny Blaze My first marathon - and my family will be there. I just hope to get round in under 5 hours and anything else is a bonus. I have erred on the optimistic side as 26 miles is unknown territory to me! UPDATE: well I got a great time despite conditions, and met lovely folks on day before and at race. Arms sore now but legs pretty ok!

taulpaul Great well marshalled race with plentiful, water, isotonic and sponge stations. Weather made it tough going and struggled in the last 4 miles but still got there in under 4 hours so pleased with that. Finished 359 out of 748 finishers.

Watford Wobble I hope to stay injury free for this one and if I do then I should beat my current PB. Update 20th March. Currently carrying a niggly knee injury and have reconsidered my goals after Silverston half on the 9th March. Hope now to post a time of 4:32. I flunked it. Too hot, ached, left knee ached. And mostly not mentally up for this for some reason. It was always a 'B' race with Bethyblue's FLM being the goal. But now she's beating me to the line maybe I'll retire. Sorry folks who bet on me. But I tried my best.
