BBC Sport - Harriette Thompson, 92, sets marathon record in San Diego

Pah, now that's an achievement!

Seriously though, well done BP.

[vetran]

Many thanks all. I am in so much pain now. Getting up on the last day, know that I was in agony and that the last marathon would add to my pain, was extremely tough.

My triple swim last year was not good. So I got a swim coach and worked very hard at my swimming. My triple swim this year was just as bad! I was gutted. I withdrew before I was pulled from the race. Luckily the organizers are flexible so agreed I could drop to a continuous triple. I came top in that category.

The highlights for me were the family turning up. And chatting to people who think this sort of event is normal as opposed to completely mad.

Its going to be interesting seeing how long before I can start to walk without calf muscles and soles of feet protesting...

stupid check.
Awesome check

well done!

Sorry for the lack of update! I switched events so had a new timing chip.

I completed a continuous triple.

I will post more when I can. I really appreciate all the support and donations.

I have many injuries. My feet are just one big bruise on the soles. Incredibly painful.

Bike peddler is a shop that sells cycling stuff.

It's where I got my rear view mirror from

Bike Peddler Take A Look Cycling Eyeglass Mirror | Amazon.com: Outdoor Recreation

As is Charlie the Bike Monger, rather than being a Cyclist that sells charlie.

I was wondering how BP was getting on while I was driving home this afternoon. Quite why he feels bad about "only" doing a triple swim I don't know. I;d have drowned after 20 minutes I think.

[vetran]

well he is not last!

keep going BP!

being still breathing is an achievement after that lot, my wife would be spending the insurance if it were me.

Go Brillo!
