Distance: Marathon
Type: Road
Comments: At the start of the Manchester marathon was myself (Kenny ) and Andy Phelps . I was nervous as I'm not that good at the marathon but this time I had a good plan and just needed to be disciplined , not to go off to fast and get carried away . Andy being injured for the last 5 weeks was just there as support and the fun of it all befor he pulled up which was his plan . Holding back for 10m wasn't easy but I managed it in 1.12 the next 10m was to be quicker in 1.08 so that's 20m in 2.20 the plan is working perfect plus a high five with Andy at 12m befor he pulled out . Here's the fun bit all out for the last 6.2 and feeling good or until 23m haha oh well it was to good to be true but I dug in and push the old legs for the last 3 . Well a new PB 3.04.40 , taking 10min off my old one . So my fellow runners , Have a plan .........Also a big well done to Jill Thomas on her first marathon
