Claire just wanted to wish you the very best of luck for Monday you know that its going to be tough but you got round Grindleford (HARDER THAN A MARATHON IN MY OPINION) and anything that's worth achieving is hard but I guarantee the buzz you will get at the finish is worthy compensation. Enjoy you will experience all these emotions and more but this is the one you get at 26.2 miles
Hello Claire Good luck on your debut marathon in Dublin on Monday have a good un take it easy early on, try and get to the 20 mile point in the best condition you can, then youv,e only got an easy peasy 10K to go doddle take care have a good weekend. FrankMc
I second what Gary said- if you can run Grindleford you can definately tackle Dublin. You are ship shape and ready to run!
I remember when I crossed the line I was somewhere between crying/ heart palputations/ joy/ more crying/ couldnt really breathe/ didnt know how to stop running!
I hope the weather stays fine for you :)
