I did it!!! 2 hours and 21minutes. It all went well, although the last mile was a bit tough with my pelvis starting to get a bit achy and sore, and then one of my calves started to cramp a bit ....but I just kept thinking it was worth it and no pain, no gain! I have to admit at one point I was thinking a skydive jump would have been easier! But parts of the walk were lovely, the weather was gorgeous with the sun shining. Walking along with Scrabo Tower majestically soring above us, and with stunning views across Strangford Lough and down to the Mourne Mountains....it was gorgeous!, and nice having a bit of 'me' time!..... and so I got through it, was in the first bunch of walkers across the line and got my medal at the end! Yesterday my muscles seemed relatively good and I wasn't too stiff.....thoughts were even drifting to a 5 mile run next month! Haaa - by last night I had totally stiffened up and at the moment am now walking around like an old woman! But it has been worth it and the amount of money I have raised has been incredible!
