Sunday 22/04/07

London Marathon - 26 miles 385 yards
1538th place - 3hrs 09mins 45secs

Splits were...
10km - 41-23
20km - 43-24
half way in 1-29-30
30km - 44-25
40km - 49-37 (pathetic)
and the last 2195 metres in 10-56

Very similar to last years performance, though I set off even more quickly this year.
I knew that it was a bit impetuous when Commonwealth steeplechaser Don Naylor cruised past after 3 miles. You've got to give yourself a chance though eh?
