    I feel like I'm on a hill in Wimbledon, looking at a giant screen and shouting 'Come on Greg!'

    The old boy only' has a half marathon to go. Seems like he might outwit the bears after all.
    Little bit impressed. Just a little.

    Edit: 7.30 Transition 2. Clearly had a nap.

    Running your first marathon against medical advice after the first two legs of a triathlon? More than a little impressive in my opinion (also a bit stupid).

    Route doesn't take in Balham Hill. Jus' sayin'

    (however, triathlon is only 1.5km/40km rather than 3.8km/180km. Fine, moderately impressed).

    Yeah, oops, my bad. Ironman, not triathlon. Triathlons are only for wimps, like the Brownlee boys.

    Thanks all. Full report to follow. But it was a tough day at the office, that's for sure. There was a bear on the run course but unfortunately he wasn't amenable to giving me a ride home...

    Leg seems ok, but have to wait 2-3 weeks to see whether a stress issue develops (they take that long to show).

    Never again. Never.
    Swim. Bike. Run. Yeah. That's what I used to do.

    That's what they all say. People with hangovers, mothers after the birth, and clearly Ironmen. In the meantime, welcome back to SCR. :D
