London Marathon

Another great London Marathon as always the support from the crowd was incredible, the crowd was 5 deep for all 26 miles, managed to see Steve/Sue/Haley/Robert at about half way at which point i was feeling strong, began to suffer a little at about 20 miles but was pretty much done for by about 24 miles, the aim had always been to keep it under 4hrs but at 3hrs 57mins i was cutting it fine, on the Embankment i had a quick chat with both Gordon Ramsey and Iwan Thomas who were also both suffering a little.
In reflection 3hrs 57min wasn't too bad considering that this was the 4th marathon in 4 weeks, this week i will cycle a little and then hopefully I'm planning a bit of a toughy next weekend before i make a final decision on the GUCR which is now only 4 weeks away.
