34 minutes at 116bpm (range of 109-123bpm), really had to concentrate to keep my pace slow enough to keep my heart rate in the right range.

Probably a little bit too quick at the start, glute began to grumble on the Highway towards Canary Wharf and my stomach said NO as I prepared to take the 2 hour gel and subsequent water.
Hanging on along the Embankment and Birdcage Walk, just about made it to the finish thanks to the support from my family and friends, love you all!!
Over the moon with a sub 3 finish, a 27¾ minutes PB and an 18½ minutes M55 club record (last set in 2008, sorry Ivon).

Post Marathon Recovery Run
Very slow paced recovery run to the end of Old Watling Street and back again, legs are in bits but feeling a little better for being mobile.
I suspect that it will be "Rinse and Repeat" for the next few days.

Sunday Morning Longish Run

Wet birthday circuit from the Bench via Star Lane, Hempstead, Maidstone Road, Bredhurst, the Capstone Valley and North Dane Way, cut short at Luton Rec to avoid loading up my achilles and calf muscles.

The one where you realise almost immediately that you're wearing the wrong shoes!
Slipping and sliding my way around the Darnley Mausoleum, decided to go home across the golf course and bumped into Mark & Lynn Champion at the top.
Kept my heart rate comfortably in zones 1 and 2 apart from the steepest part of the climb to the mausoleum.
