First marathon ✅ 4:00:45. 42.3 kilometres through York. From KM 32, my legs started giving way. The same feeling I had at the ULTRACk 50 when I stopped at 30KM on a track. This time I didn’t stop. I walked KM 36 and 37. Then I ran again. That’s the whole story really.

A season that started with a hamstring pull. A 10K in Edinburgh. A half marathon debut. And now this. Mo’s “Gooooo Dim” at the final lap and Ire’s “Daddy, Weeeeeeee” got me through this one #babysteps

For what it’s worth, I tried to stall but I got too excited. It’s not exactly how I imagined this would go but ending it this way got me all emotional. I’ll try it again when everything goes back to normal. #projectbabybicycle

The 30 seconds before you walk on stage are a special kind of terror. Your mind goes blank. Every proper opener you rehearsed sounds fake. So I threw the plan out and did the only thing that felt true. “Hello everyone, my name is Daddy Snacks.” 😅 IYKYK. This room did.
