Stroud half marathon 2:49.12

At 11.5 miles I was giving up the will to live!!!

Beautiful course, all roads, some main ones. Great support, excellent fun. But yikes, 13.1 miles is a long way. How am I going to do it all again at the Portsmouth Coastal Marathon????

Fab to see Nicki and Jade.

Will def do again
