That DAMN hill!!!

So it's sunday the sun is shining, everyone is smiling, the picnic baskets are out, oh what a glorious day...UNLESS you're about to run 22 miles!! oh yes folks it's the day of the 'big run', and the final big run.

Sarah and I both decide to attempt richmond park alone so we can run at our own paces - sarah's being fast and my pace is more one where i know i will still be alive at the end.

I think all the marathon runners in london were in richmond, everyone had their chairty tops on, red laces and scared faces - a truly great atmosphere

Sarah comfortably maaged her 3 laps bouncing along like tigger in her new trainers in an amazing time!! I am happy to still be alive but proud as punch that i managed 'that hill' three times!! it was as much fun as having my wisdom teeth pulled out!!

But WE DID IT!!! and sarah and i are now sat watching kids movies with sore feet and hot water bottles!! only 3 weeks until the marathon!!! bring it on!!
