Well, to say that I ache would be a lie. With the exceptions of my hands and head my entire body hurts, but that's what you get when you run a marathon with very little training. It is an important lesson that I really, really must learn for next time. If there is a next time... God I hope there isn't!!
For those of you that are interested I finished in 6 hours, 54 minutes and 51 seconds, which is not only nearly an hour faster than last time, it is also (more importantly) faster than the time that Katie Price set last year.
This year I took my camera with me, but not to take photos but to take little clips of what I was feeling as I was going around, so the following video is my video blog of the London Marathon.
