    Hey thank for the info on the Yorkshire Primrose, I did wonder what they were as I stumbled past.

    Cheers MG. Couldn't sleep properly last night and probably tonight. I'm that hyped up. Great crack isn't it!

    Re: Three Peaks 2009

    Can you believe we're already talking about doing it again? I'm doing so even while my legs are taking industrial action and picketing the rest of my body.

    Is it because we can't quite comprehend the pain that we forget it so quickly?
    Is it like that with women and childbirth?
    MG?!

    Roll on 2010
    Great pics from everyone, cheers, and thanks to all the marshalls, tried to say thanks to all of em, words may have failed me at times, and all the supporters out on the course, certainly helps to spur you on.
    Got to the top of the steep bit of Inglebugger and my old Physical training instructor from my army days was holding the gate open for everyone, great to see him again, and made sure i ran the next bit, just in case he shouted at me

    I bet the encounter pleased him as much as it did you, Merry.
    Given your performance yesterday, he obviously did a good job with you.
    But you can take some credit yourself if you like.

    Can't take credit myself, i treat my body like a wheelie bin, even have numbers stuck to me like a wheelie bin, perhaps that's my calling in life, or am i just talking rubbish again

    It was me (unless any other crazy fools did the same!) and yes I did survive both! I finished the 3 Peaks in 4h 57m (first time) and found it very tough in the second half. I did the London Marathon on Sunday in 3h 50m, and, strangely enough, found that very tough in the second half too!!

    Had a fantastic weekend, but loads to sort out and catch up on. Will post a link to my photos when I've got them sorted out - 3 Peaks and London Marathon.

    I enjoyed both events enormously, and will be back for the 3 Peaks next year, but next time on its own!

    Absolutely amazing. Well done. Don't know how you managed it.

    I can still hardly walk!
