Q marathon completed YEAH

23rd Marathon completed the Queen Elizabeth Park marathon near Portsmouth. I have been training really hard partly as I have an iron-man triathlon on 14th July, hence I ran a time I am really chuffed with 4 hours and 3 minutes for a hilly marathon total climb equivalent of climbing Snowdon.

The marathon was really well organised and I was very lucky with the weather. My parents came to support, they said that went to the country park when I was younger, when we lived in Southampton where I was born, we moved to Yorkshire when I was three so I do not remember visiting the park. My parents took the photos below

At 16 miles 

Finish YEAH

Me and my Mum I am wearing my medal but it is hard to make out

I can not believe I have run 23 marathons. while running I sometimes do simple maths and I worked out while running that 26.2 miles x 4 is 104.8 miles so I really wanted to get to 5 miles so that I was under 100 miles to go on my A-Z challenge. 3 more marathons to go.
