Thanks again, you've been a huge help in getting us both ready for it. Other half seems truly bitten by the bug and will be keeping it up I think. I'll keep running but I think maybe only up to around 10k or an hour? We'll see. Bus today in any case!
Another thing I was thinking this morning is that I totally underestimated a half marathon and how difficult it would be - I thought my on-bike fitness would transfer, and to some extent it did, but the amount of conditioning you have to put your body through to run for 2+ hours is incredible. Renewed respect (not that it was lacking) for those of you who regularly run distance and seem to be able to do so in comfort!

We’re not in comfort, we’re just better at hiding it ;)
Massive congrats on the race, glad you got round!

No worries, you both did all the hard work in getting the training done.
Glad you'll both be sticking with it to various levels, if I can help further just shout.
To borrow from that cycling quote, it never gets easier, just faster/further!

Really chuffed for you both, excellent result.
Possibly so but something I've not seen before I think. If your body was kicking out adrenaline to deal with the pain perhaps the hr rises?
Hope it's not too painful today & you can get back on the bike & running soon.
