Well I done it !!!!!!! 26.2 miles, well I actually ran 27 somehow in about 5 and a half hours, ignoring the queuing for toilets - wished I was a bloke many a time, much easier! (Official time 5.43).
it was the hardest thing i have ever done but I absolutely loved it! Fabulous atmosphere.
My highlights were running over Tower Bridge at about half way and the last mile along the Thames. spotting Big Ben and then up the Mall to the finish.
Would I do it again? No, it was a once in a lifetime experience for me but I do recommend it to everyone, it was a day I will never forget!
