I found some photos from my finish at Connemara. They’re not the most flattering photos ever, and I had no idea I was looking so knackered. I couldn’t find any pictures showing me during the race, so those two will in all likelihood have to do.
The time on display is slightly off, most likely due to the way they start the marathon not at a fixed time but after the top ultra guys pass the marathon start. Not that a few seconds matter, especially as it's nowhere near my PR anyway.
You look like a guy who just finished a tough race! And a little wet too. Good job!
ReplyDeletevery nice piccys! looks like a strong finish there :)
ReplyDeletecool!
ReplyDeleteWho cares. You still look strong.
ReplyDeleteI like red colors! Draws deserved attention:)
ReplyDeleteHey if you go by the clock on the upper left you ran a 2:41:57. You almost beat Mike from Running With Lydiard.
ReplyDeleteSo sorry you didn't have the run you were hoping for. But you can be very proud of your positive attitude and the fact you did so well under the circumstances.
ReplyDeleteOnwards and Upwards!

I like the photos! Congrats again, and we all know how fab you're going to do in Dublin.
ReplyDeleteBtw - that finish area is SO cute and small (compared to anything I've been through) - makes me want to do a small marathon one day :)
Thomas - you look like you just finished a marathon!
ReplyDeleteThomas I think you look GREAT! for just completing a marathon!
