wow - what a race! A huge thank you to the random strangers I begged water from. Had lots of gels & energy drink on me but over first half was just craving water, very weird. And another big thank you to everyone who posted advice re taking it steady over the first half, I did & the wheels still totally dropped off in the last 2 miles. Would've liked to break 4 1/2hrs but v chuffed with a 4.34. Great organisation, thanks to all the marshalls & supporters, looking forward to next year already
