I'm a magpie*For a long time, I doubted that this was something I could ever achieve. I'm not what you would call naturally athletic, so the many months of training runs have been Hard Work. Luckily, I was born under a stubborn star, which may be the only thing that stopped me from giving up!
Granted, it was a fab experience to run under the Clifton Suspension Bridge (twice) and around the city centre with 14,999 other runners - but I'm quite glad it is now all over. I can eat chocolate biscuits again. And drink wine. Mmmmm.
I can't, however, walk down stairs without looking like a geriatric crab. But such is life.
