Been off this thread for months, because of injury and sour grapes of hearing other people talking about their good runs. However, getting back into things, and managed to complete The Swimmer on Sat, a monthly half mara interspersed with 4 cold swims from Hampstead Ponds to Brockwell Park Lido. You have to love that 40 people would turn up for that sort of lunacy.
Great event, mainly done at a social pace until the last 6 miles when it breaks up. I went with the two leaders, but wasn't strong enough to keep with them and they lost me in Clapham, so had to wait for the next group as I didn't know the route. Still, pleased with being able to keep it together, coming off the back of a few 5km treadmill runs.
