Pleased with my time of 1:47:24 but missed out on the the experience of the great atmosphere down the finishing straight. I have no recollection of the last 600 yards so I'll have to do it again next year. 
I'm not sure my better half will agree since she spent over an hour with my two daughters at our prearranged meeting place wondering what was happening. |
You tried and so what if you made a mistake and didn't drink as much as you were supposed to. You mad and effort and made a mistake and the next time you will be more sensible and learn from your mistake. We all learn from mistakes so dont be hard on yourself. Well done for the what you did achieve
