London: the 6th and final

I’m kind of hoping this [post] is just like friendships I have with my high school girl friends… we pick up just where we left off despite the distance and in this case the time that has past. So it’s been little while… enough time that there is now three of us, which has absorbed time like never before.

Fast forward to April 2016, the Happy Runner is carb loading again! This time [finally] for the London Marathon. The 6th and final World Major Marathon.

Amongst the white bread, fruit juice and Powerade the nerves were obvious. Well to be honest they were my nerves. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again… support crew is a tough job, sometimes I think I’d rather be the one running!

As usual I had nothing to worry about… so very proud.

Another Marathon and this time another team member to help cheer on the Happy Runner.
