    Great read - well done. And who knows how dangerous you'd be if you didnt have to stop and pick up energy gels!

    Have you mapped out your next race or marathon?

    Thanks thirstywork, the county senior xcross country in late december is the next race. The only other think marked in the diary is an entry for the conn ultra, but right now i'm not sure if i'll do that, in fact i'm pretty sure i'll drop back to the full or half. I'll have another pop at a marathon next autumn i think after i've built a solid base. Might give the galway marathon a miss though ;)

    Fair play - is that only your second marathon?

    Thanks DustyBin, yep that was my second, i did connemara halfs in 06 & 08 (both in 1:46) and then signed up for connemara full at the start of november last year as my first full marathon.

    Well done again Asimonov...great running.
    Enjoy the break now,you deserve it I'm mad jealous but delighted for you.

    thanks sosa, you've a marathon in hand on me now, it's just a matter of how far below 3 you go next time.

    I'm going to finish off the log now and as above, thanks to everyone for their advice, comments and motivation. I hope i can return the favour. I'm going to pick some new targets for 2010 and start a new log soon enough.

    Hi asimonov, I missed this one too - Amadeus's "Hall of Fame" thread reminded me to have a look. That's a terrific report and a great performance - you coped very well with the flask incidents - that kind of thing would have driven me mad!
    Florence sounds like a good one.
