Welcome

Welcome, finally, to my website. Here's info on me, my books and other writings, what I'm up to, and the inevitable deeply self-absorbed blog. Visit, graze, leave a comment, then go out into the sunshine and read.

21, not quite done

|

I just got back from running the Cranleigh 21-mile Race, down in a particularly beautiful bit of Surrey.  I reached the 21-mile point at 2:59:47, and then they sort of hide the finish line and you slow down a bit trying to find it (I'm not actually making this up).  So I therefore finised the 21.11 mile race in 3:00:35, which I'm very very pleased with, truly.  Twenty-one miles is a bloody long way, let me tell ya.

A really nice course and a well-run club race (except for the finish line problem).  Kudos all round.  But especially to me, as I set new PBs at the half-marathon and the 20-mile points.  I'm going to be sooooooo tired by the time the Marathon finishes.

But there's still time to sponsor me!  I'm nearly at £2000; are you the one who'll put me over the top?  It's www.justgiving.com/patrickness.  No pressure, but I did run 21.11 miles today.  Did you?
