Paul Hurdsfield - Joint Manchester AO Posted April 13, 2014 Author Share Posted April 13, 2014 I've just copied this off Glens Facebook page. "well it was hot, verry sunny and very crowded but a fantastic experience. I was determined to go sub 4 hrs and think there may have been more in the tank if it wasn't so sunny and had to stop twice for call of nature and some vasaline on a sore foot but well chuffed to be cheered on by the unbelievable crowds and get on official 3:51:55 time for my first Marathon, now to break the dry spell and have a pint (start with a shandy) HUGE THANKS for all the support and sponsorship" Well done Glen thats a fantastic achievment 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pistonbroke Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 I'll say, Glen running past I don't know how many pubs is one heck of an achievement Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glen H Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 Gents - thanks for the support and good lucks etc, apologies for the delay in my reply but I missed this post completely until Hurdsey called round earlier today and told me about it. As you csn imagine, running 26.2 miles was not the easiest thing to acomplish, especially sub 4hrs with only 8 weeks training due to a late decission in signing up but London was a fantastic experience and the crowds of spectators and bands playing etc really do make it all a bit special, and the further along you got then the crowds just got bigger and louder and even though it was tough I had a hugh grin on my face especially from 18 miles (Canary Wharf) onwards. My run was for Chairty - http://www.sense.org.uk/content/about-us who cater for those that are both Deaf AND Blind, shouldanyone wish to donate then please see my justgiving page at http://www.justgiving.com/G-Hardman Many Thanks Glen Here's a bit of infor on my pace etc http://connect.garmin.com:80/activity/embed/480142742'></iframe> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
