4 hours 59 minutes 45 seconds

4 hours, 59 minutes, 45 seconds
Well I can honestly say running the Virgin London Marathon was the hardest thing I have ever had to do. It was an amazing experience and the crowd were fantastic. After a fairly good start, I crossed the mid way point at 2 hours, 10 mins, however, my left knee and hamstring started getting painful. I pushed through, was delighted to see my hubby, Kitty and Sam at mile 16, giving hubby a hug, then gave up and walked around mile 17. So with a combination of walking and running or should I say jogging I finished in just under 5 hours. Richard Branson came in just behind me - didn't he do well, and he was dressed with wings!!!!!
