O/T good luck Mike Terry   
It's your big weekend this weekend, isn't it? Hope the training pays
off and the weather behaves well for you - and wave to the cameras at
every opportunity and we'll all wave back.

Re: O/T good luck Mike Terry   
Thanks for you good wishes Jane.

I aim to have great day and my son is running as well, he's just 18 but will
probably beat me.

Good Luck, Mike :))

Re: O/T good luck Mike Terry   
I struggled a bit towards the end with cramps and it was surprisingly hot,
however I managed 3:58 so achieved my target of below 4 hours.

Thanks for all the good wishes, it was an amazing day and the crowd support
was incredible.

Very well done Mike..I hope you didn't copy "Our Paula" to relieve your
cramps :-)

Old^Wolf has a personal best time of just under four hours too..but he
didn't manage to complete the second mile :-)))))

Wow, Mike, that's brilliant, well done on completing it especially in

That sounds like my kind of Marathon too. Do you think it'll ever be
recognised as an Olympic event?  As long as they throw in a compulsory
massage and facial every couple of days I reckon I could go for gold.
