Could not agree more about your brain activity. Did you overuse or underuse when you were younger? I suspect underuse.

No, other way round.

Pending final times I think I was about 20 mins behind overall.
Between laps 12-18 I had to keep stopping to stretch out gammy leg.

One time I had to wait for Brillo, thought I had 5 more laps to go, just as well Brillo said i had 3.

Who was that skinny chap running with you? DNF'ed because he thought he could do a mara in football trainers? (not the spikey ones).

The skinny guy is a chap from the white oak tri club - he just wanted to run a bit. Piccie of him on facebook - for when(if?) I get that friend invite.....

Think of them as badges of honour, MTFU and get back on your bike, use it or lose it, you'll pay for it later if you dont.

Great job!

Shouldnt get a Finisher medal - should include biggest sandbagger medal.

Cheated via actually training.

I needed the lap counter though
