just a joke on the name is all. No idea really x

Good luck

BBx · 25-09-2011, 20:00

Thanks for all of the well wishes, sponsorship and support

Came in at 2hours 17mins and 50secs which I am SOOOOOO chuffed about!!

Especially when I thought my time was 2hours 31mins... (according to the clock time) my maths is obviously rubbish!

official time here with my breakdowns

http://runtothebeat.nikerunning.com/race/19187

Today was HOT 22degrees and very sunny... I took advantage of all of the water stations... best bit of advice was from Reeves who told me to 'take tissues'.

Was a really good run and a great atmosphere... Most of the way round I had a big smile on my face

there is music on stages all the way round which gives you a boost

I had a name badge on my top so randoms were shouting me name and encouraging me!!!

Also the little kids giving out jelly babies and holding out their hands so you can high five them

I also had the advantage of having friends who lived on the route... Shereen had made me a banner which was brilliant and she did a video but YouTube told her she had to take it down as it had the Eye of the Tiger on it!! I'm glad I managed to see all of my friends

it was particularly great to see them at the most challenging points - 6 and 8miles and of course my parents were at the end... along with William who sprinted across Europe from a family wedding to be there.

The last mile was the hardest for me... tired and people passing out all over the shop, but still managed a sprint finish

One of the best days of my life. Thank you all xxx

Very, very, very well done!

PS - Depending on what format the video is in, it probably wouldn't be too hard to strip out the sound if you want to post it up.

Jonny69 · 26-09-2011, 15:57

Well done. 13 miles is an amazing distance. BE PROUD!

Aitch · 26-09-2011, 22:18

Well done Mei. It is a huge achievement - to complete that distance and for the funds you are raising. And what a cracking time! Glad we could be there to see you being a star xx
