achy, tired, hot, but met my goal!

Phew - despite saying "well of course I'll be able to finish", a tiny percentage of me wondered if that would definitely be the case. I've not dropped out of a race yet, however, so am happy to report I did indeed finish, and, with a time of 69:35, squeaked in just under my goal time of 70 minutes. Thankfully I was *not* one of the 8 people taken to hospital with heat exhaustion!

Maybe next year I'll train properly... yeah, right - in the run up to the wedding and then through the honeymoon? Maybe not!

Thanks to Verity, who, though unable to run the race, cheered me (and her husband & friends Lucy & Seth) along through route. Pix from her to come soon!

Now I think it's naptime.
