2 hours 1 minute

OK its not fast I admit, but it was my personal best. I completed the whole 13.1 mile 1/2 marathon course in just over 2 hours 1 minute.

This is my fourth 1/2 marathon my previous time are below:

2 hours 18 minutes
2 hours 7 minutes
2 hours 3 minutes

So I hope one day to complete a half marathon in under 2 hours, just once! However in two years I haved shaved 17 minutes off my time! So depsite getting older I am still improving!

It was a nice sunny day and there were 17,000 runners! No J I didnt get overtaken by a Rhino, but I did overtake a camel and Sheik, a singing Elvis and 4 penguins! I have a huge blister for my efforts so need to find some really flat comfortable shoes for work tomorrow!

Hope everyone had a nice Mothers day!
