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,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Notes & Comments

10st 3 5/8 day before. Went into race having not run a step for 2 weeks. Had picked up an achilles/soleus injury 3 weeks out. Tried it again a week later and ran 3 miles but almost unable to walk following day. Decided to allow maximum yime to heal but meant when I got to start line didn't know how far I would get. Ran a bit flat footed to avoid going up on toes as I thought that would protect achilles. Did okay for first 6 miles but from 9th mile onwards slowed dramatically. Quite a few walks because it was getting sore and I though walking might help it stretch out without the impact of running. 3 weeks ago if you'd told me I would run GNR in 2.15 I'd have been gutted because I thought I would go under 2 hours but if you'd offered me finishing in 2.14 I'd have snatched your hand off. warm day, very sunny and no wind. perfect conditions.Cad. 178.
