Yesterday I completed the Leeds Half Marathon in 2 hours 47 mins 10 seconds official time. My chip time was 2 hours 41 minutes 38 seconds. I didn't train for it, I just turned. My slowest time before I was injured was 1 hour 39 minutes. It was my twelve half marathon. On Weds 2 Dec 2009, I asked my physio if i'd ever run an Half Marathon again? I was told that I may never run 800 metres again. I proved her wrong and so can the rest of us at a lot of things.
