THE RAMBLING THOUGHTS OF KEVLAR THE RUNNER . ....
Well, tis Done folks . The Run was on Sunday , set off with theWhite wave of runners at 10.48 after a mr motivator style warm up , which was just as well as i had left my trainee leggings in with the baggage area . Dame Kelly Holmes started it off for everyone but i was on the wrong side of the road to get a handshake with the Blessed Dame , maintained a steady pace for the first 5 miles despite runners hacking it past me at ridiculous and foolish pace , and realising after just 2 miles that the ammount of h2o i had taken on board before the race meant i was desperate for a pee , but once the adrenalin kicked in i managed to hold it all together really well . Got to 6 miles in exactly 1 hour at 10 min mile pace ,but felt fine and so upped it a little in the 2nd half and got home well alough at one stage i had 3 water bottles in my grasp ? Support was amazing and there was a crowd at every stage of the run , and in the final 50 metres was spotted by my esteemed adviser and lovely running friend Louise, and we crossed the line together .
And the time was 1 Hour 30 mins and 23 seconds and dead chuffed with that!! Thanx for everybodies support and a quick reminder that this site will stay open for a further few months in case anybody wants to donate still .
KEVLAR OUT !!! ............... but i will return.
