Reader, I did it

Almost at the end (I'm not in the shot)

Medal!

Medal!

My body feels broken, but between us I’m pretty chuffed to be able to say I finished the whole distance: my pesky right knee held up okay and I didn’t get any blisters! (Those $35 sports socks were totally worth the money.) I’ll write up more later – I’m off now to have a quiet afternoon.

My thanks to you all for your support. Last time I checked I had raised $345 for the MND Association (and it’s not too late to pledge more money). THANK YOU x

p.s Not sure what my official time is yet, I haven’t heard, but it’s not flash. But you know what? I don’t care. I made it.

I am in awe, How do you do it. My Mum always said “if you want something done ask a busy person”
