Paris Marathon 2017 ✨🇫🇷
Up for 6am to get a light snack, then run down to the baggage drop my bag off and get ready for the start of the marathon. Absolutely hated the start!! They put slower people at the front so when it was go time people were pushing from behind. Took me about 5km before I felt that I was at a good pace and wanted to get to half way with a 5:30pace which I hit dead on. Think I would have missed the Eiffel Tower if there wasn't an arrow pointing towards it 😂😂 still feeling great up to about 24 miles the little up hills didn't help 😊 looking at my watch and thinking I just need to hold on I've got this PB! It was great to be able to see the finished inside and looking at the clock thinking I'VE DONE IT!! Official finishing time 2:27:55sec (that's 34sec off) last time I did a sub 16 Parkrun I did a sub 2:30 marathon 😃🇬🇧 history repeats itself. Massive thank you for all the support and messages that I've been getting!! Before I go I made it into the top 100, on the app it's saying real position 36th not bad out of 50000
