Hi ho

So here we are. I'm typing away here, slurping down tea and icing my ankle one last time before I catch the train to the Big Smoke and Very Slow Marathon #5. That came around quickly....
I really have no words, so I'll nick those of the mighty Emma, my comrade in Stupid Determination:
there's a familiar turn of mind that anyone who has faced the marathon will know. I am alternating between "Ohshitohshitohshit, we're all going to die!" and "Who the hell am I to even consider running a marathon?" Good luck to my friends who are facing down the big 42.2 this weekend. Remember, it's a long way and it's going to hurt a lot.

Ok darl, I'll remember.
Wish me luck, eh?More anon, nervous grinners!

3 much-appreciated comments:

Wow, it came around quickly!!

Was thinking of you on my (small!) run this afternoon. I know you will rock this just like you've rocked all the others!

One km at a time!! You'll do it in style!!

Looking forward to hearing how it all goes xx

"Ohshitohshitohshit, we're all going to die!"

Yep, that's pretty much how I'd be feeling. LOL

You'll be FINE. Best of luck - remember to take a leaf out of Shauna's book and enjoy the experience while it's happening, not just afterwards...

Ohhhh in my sleep deprived haze I forgot to come and wish you good luck.

I hope it went really well and you're now enjoying your bling post marathon smug glow!
