Thanks for the good luck message - Italy was great....

FLORENCE MARATHON 25th Nov 2012; Official Real Time 3.16 but I did the 42km in 3.14; there were 700m extra on my Garmin which I think was caused by my zig zagging through 600 runners in the first 10km.

Hence 2 additional minutes were for additional distance (700m) over and above the official marathon distance (42km); so did I do the marathon in 3.16 or 3.14?

Anyway I think I earned my beer (see below)

That only looks like an 'alf - and lager too! What the hell's wrong with you man??? (OK I'll forget the lager since you're in foreign climbs, but the half!)

Well done Steve, good result that. Unfortunately it's the real time that's recorded, as Sandra found out to her dismay at London 2 years ago on her first mara heading for (and achieving on her watch) a sub 4 hour and being lumbered with 4.08 :angry:

Ancient Heptonstall Felling Rites - fell runners cross border into Lancashire, fell tree, return to Yorkshire to display trophy in village square, before ritual feasting (beer and pies) in the White Lion. Trig balances on ladder trying to sort out that bulb which always goes out when you switch the lights on....
