This was the first year for this race so when i googled the toughest uk marathon it didnt show up !!
But as i soon discovered from seasoned marathon/trial runners it was the toughest.
The hills were extreme and brutal the bog stank !!
The feed stations and marshalls were brilliant and the best thing about the event was the support from other runners as we passed each other with high 5's.
I must shout out mike who ran with me from mile 3 and kept me going to the end we had to walk the hills as there was no way we could run them.
Now i'm home id like to thank all the challenge guys and girls for your support as the thing i'm proud to say is 'I'M A MARATHON RUNNER' got the sore nipples,black toe nails to prove it
I hope you all got gold medals which you obviously deserve. The usual advice is to start off with an easy run. Congratulations!!
