Hi Everyone
Firstly id like to say a Massive Thanks to all that sponsored me it was the thought of you guy and all the others from home that kept me going.
Right cant go straight to my time need to tell you all about it mile for mile so crab a cuppa. To start with it was HOT sorry VERY HOT around 25 degrees so ideal conditions for a wee run round Edinburgh.
At the start it was very hectic and someone accidently stood on my toe didnt hurt at the time but think i am going to be 2 toes nails less in the morning. Felt really good and was keeping to my time (4hours) spot on until i got to the 20mile mark where i was 1 min behind time so thought this is a doddle that was a silly thought as i just could move my legs but i never stopped running once so thats an achievement on its own for me and wait for it i came over the finish line (unofficial time as correct time will be out tomorrow) of 4 hours 13 mins and 38 seconds but will have to wait to i get the offical time before announcing winners.
Well had a slow drive home stopping for lunch and a few stretches legs really sore now so only got a 12 hour shift at work tomorrow
THANKS AGAIN GUYS
