MANCHESTER MARATHON IS FINALLY HERE!!

It’s here!!!

Finally the day I’ve bee waiting for for so long is here.
I’ve been mooching since 4.30am got several hours to go yet with the late starts would have loved to be getting going at 9am but 11.50 it is I’ll just have to deal with it.
My stomach is full of butterflies.
I’m over thinking everything, don’t want to eat to early, don’t want to eat to late, don’t want to have to rush to start line incase I can’t get across the road, don’t want to be too early stood around this will cause several port loo trips 🤣🤣. Don’t want to miss my wave cause I’m in the ports loo 🙈. Although I can join the last wave at least.
Legs already feel heavy my heads saying am I really going to make it damn you head!

Oh my word why do we put ourself through this stress 🤣 is this really fun?
I thought race mornings would get easier the more you do it dosnt.

I really have no idea if I’ll make it or not today but if I don’t go and try I’ll never know. I’m hoping the atmosphere and supporters will keep me going, must remember nice and steady, don’t go out too fast with the crowd, stick to 30/30 if I start to struggle drop down to 30/ 45 or 30/60. Either way I’m going to give it my all.
See you on the other side.
