I didn't get cramp twinges until 23 miles in. It was my hamstrings this time. It felt like someone was sticking needles into them.
I set off at 9 min mile pace although the treadmill was km only. Dave Nicoll the RNLI fundraiser did a great job converting for me. I completed this marathon in 4 hours and 1 min and my only concern this time was but my lips and fingers were tingly when I stopped. Not sure what this condition was but I had to sit down and keep warm until it passed.
Today I'm feeling good, apart from a little fatigued. My legs feel good today too.
I think the lessons from the last marathon have well and truly been learned.
We raised £220.85 on families day which is £20 more than the target I set!
So I feel a break from fundraising is probably wise for a moment and allow my old body chance to heal!
The RNLI is the charity that saves lives at sea
