Thanks for the kind words.
Nigel has it about right - a triumph for persistence, or at least sheer bloody-mindedness. Actually Dan I think the conditions were about perfect; sunny but not too hot, a helpful breeze . . . but I'd have loved a shower or two along the way. There's something slightly wrong with running a brutal race in gorgeous conditions.

Next Sunday is a 'step back' run - probably a maximum of 12 miles.
All are welcome, with the optional extra of a stopover at Chez Sweder on Saturday night (and the prospect of the occasional glass of ale).

I'm in the market for some deep muscle massage, a remedy suggested by Rog at regular intervals during my noisy suffering yesterday. At one point, just after he'd mentioned how effective DMM would be for the umteenth time, it dawned on him that such advice at that precise moment was doing little for my pain.
'OK, I'll shut up about the massage now.'
Thanks again Rog.
