Cheers! Was gunning for sub-2:30, and on pace at halfway in 1:14:37, but what with the marathon being a bloody long way and everything, just struggled to keep it together when things got tough. Still, over a minute off the PB and I couldn't have run any faster. Serious gurn time running under the Brandenburg Gate with 200 metres to go. I love Berlin!

fantastic time!

I was out there cheering as I couldn't run, but only arrived just in time to catch the 3h10 runners come through km37 where my pals from run pack had their cheerzone (confetti, many many signs & sound system all setup on a wide corner).

the medical people at the exop got me a guaranteed deferral to next year but only get 30euro off the re-registration fee. not sure if I'll do it though as have a place in chicago the month after.

Thanks all. @HatBeard my club mate ran a PB on a deferred entry this year. Good luck if you take it up... Chicago's on my bucket list as I'd love to do the Majors. (Only two down so far though.)
@Doctor_Cake - We watched the skaters come past 16k as we were strolling around on the Saturday. Jeez, those guys were shifting.

Currently mulling over whether to race London next year and see if I can chip off those 31 seconds. I'm not putting myself through all that again just to miss out on a PB though.
