Thanks gents - the re-hydration strategy is going according to plan, so apologies for any typos here...
Antonio - yep, 447 is the closest I've come to your magic number, but I'm sure the day will come when I score a "247". I hear good money changes hands in order to get your much-vaunted race number, but I'm sure I'll score it one day!
BB - Yes I
am very much enjoying my running, truly I am. It took too many years to overcome repetitive injuries, but I'm attempting to make the most of it now. I still feel there is better to come, however. Stay tuned on that score. And yep, at least I can say I've run a marathon with Jesus
Dan - thanks for that. I indeed came out the race feeling pretty good, at least after a few hours recuperation. 32 hours later and I'm feeling very good, with minimal soreness and just a little general tiredness. Some might suggest that indicates I didn't go hard enough, which may be true, but I'm preferring to think it was just down to good old-fashioned hard training. And how are you travelling, by the way? Any pangs of regret for ditching the annual mara for the tri? Do you itch to get the scissors and gaffa and glue out and make some wacky costume again?
