Bristol 1/2 Marathon 06 September 2009

Race Result
1hr 48mins 46sec and 2998th out of 16000.
Up at 6am, out to walk the dog,
breakfast (2x Weetabix anda Banana)
Leave home at 7.45 and parked up at 8.05.
Walk down from the car park and look around,
This is me, ready to run!
Bimble over to the blue start
take a few photos,
and start sweating.
This is also me, really ready to run.
Training done, buckets of sweat left on the streets
of Lockleaze, Filton and out around the Mall shopping centre.
No wonder its been a wet summer.
Not rain falling but sweat.
Andrew (no 3 son) ready to cheer me on.
He should have been running but managed to pick
up a knee injury at rugby yesterday.

Thats me (in the middle of the photo)

at around 91/2 miles.

The forcast was for cloudy conditions and light wind

with a temperature of 12 degrees. Well the cloud was very broken
and made it quite hot at times.
