  • Thanks, I'm fine. I'd long since resigned myself to the fact that I hadn't lost the weight and so any attempt at sub-4h was long gone (I need to be under 80kg to give that a proper go) and so Sunday was just about getting round[1]. I'm happy that I managed to 'run' for 2/3 of it rather than having to walk the whole thing (although I probably wouldn't have started if I couldn't run at all).

    Hip feels ok this morning and have tried it out with some stretches using resistance bands. Looks like stopping running the moment I felt it tweak seems to have paid off and I might be ok for gentle running when the rest of my mind/body has recovered from the marathon, if I'd have tried to carry on running I could have fucked myself properly for weeks/months.

    1. I'm 2/3 of the way to the London Classics medal now (having done Swim Serpentine 2 mile swim twice already). Just Ride 100 to go when I get a place (no luck in the ballot this year) and that's not going to be a struggle given my long distance cycling background.
