April - Old Mutual Two Oceans Marathon
How could I compare my own woeful story to that marvellous account.
What a fabulous recall of events - I got my head down and focussed on completing the damn thing.

It did feel odd passing the great man @ half way, so many miles slogged out and completed together. But it really was a day for the personal battle.

My moment came at the top of Chapmans, my quads turned to lead - the last half-marathon was a battle of wills to just keep chugging. In fact I think I sought treatment at exactly the same Physio station, great hands enabled me to walk-shuffle into the finish and I too also caught Rog, 2k from the end. How did he get past me? God works in mysterious ways - cuts and blood all over him.

I will say this - I've never run a better organised or supported race in my life.

Bring on 2008
