Any interest in a pair of Vaporfly Next% 2.0 in UK13 for £100? According to Strava they've done 39km. They're just a bit too big for me.

Damn, knocked it out the park. Can't imagine what the latter half of the run must've felt like with cramp.

Jesus well done. Puts my marathon to shame. Was my first one and I managed under 4 hours which was aim. 3:50:43

Tim did you take anything for the cramps? Salt tablets are great and really easy to take on a run.

Yep, was popping a SaltStick every hour, I don’t think they make any difference to be honest. In hindsight I should have done more hill running and speed work to build leg strength; I focused almost exclusively on easy running to build a big aerobic base.

How many km a week were you running to get prepared for that monster effort? Over a half most weekends?

70-80km a week, did have a few of 90+ weeks.
