VLM 2014

10th Marathon, 7th London. 25022/35864

Another wonderful day, but by the finish I had well and truely had enough. A sub 5 finish was the target and despite my garmin saying I ran virtually 27m I still did it!! :-)

Ideal weather, although I got sun burnt there always seemed to be a cool breeze. Bigger crowd and greater support than I ever remember in the past

Found it very hard to slow the pace at the beginning, so just kept it easy and comfortable. That meant I always knew I had time "in the bank" so long as I just kept going. Needed short walks in the 17th, 19th and 21st mile and then every mile thereafter, but just kept going!!

So that's it, at 54yo I've run my last marathon, I ran my first aged 27 so I've been running marathons for half my lifetime ..... "they think its all over, it is now"

To everyone who helped make this marathon possible (and you know who you are), a massive thank you, I could never have done it without you!!

Mara record:

Run 10
6 sub 4

3 sub 5
1 over 5

Hey you hit your target on an individual level and father and son. Super achievement - glad the crowds were out in force and believe me they were "in" force in front of the TVs and PCs too! Well done :-) Great mara stats!!

Wahey, fantastic achievement and result. I was cheering on your little stick man on the London app. Impressive mara stats as well but maybe it's not all over - your daughter might fancy a dual challenge one day ;)
Jango
Well done OM amazing! I was going to put in for it but you've put me off now! lol x
