Good results all,
A guy in work pushed out 4hrs 12mins 42 secs, which is pretty good.
Working it on paper, I can knock out 6.2miles in 1hr on average, so based on that, i should be able to knock a marathon out in under 4hrs

Well, I'm back - it was bloody hot and therefore extremely hard work.
I was a little outside my target time, but I was happy enough to finish in 5 hrs 13 mins 26 secs which still gives me a PB, so a fair time, given the circumstances.
I beat most of the rhinos, and a couple of wombles - and I was in a bit of a tussle with Spongebob Squarepants for the last 5 miles - every time I passed him, he seemed to find some extra energy to come past me.....and bananaman just pipped me at the end......
......but all was not lost - I passed Katie Price (AKA Jordan) and Peter Andre at 8.5 miles and made sure they stayed behind me for the duration.
I truly don't think I could have done anything different today to go any faster - it was simply very very hot. But the crowds were fab, and without them, I would have been a lot lot slower!
I am sure the others will report in soon! I'm off for a much needed soak.....Successful women can still have their feet on the ground. They just wear better shoes. (Maud Van de Venne)Life begins at the end of your comfort zone (Neale Donald Walsch)0 -

Well done to Hypno, Sally Becky & Rusty. You must have been so hot running today. I watched on TV. It looked very warm - too warm for marathon running anyway. Hope you are all ok and recovering well.Sealed Pot Challenge #8 £341.90
