London Marathon – Congratulation to Tom Harrison for completing the London Marathon on Sunday. He says he’s not sure if he will walk again, but he does have a medal to prove he completed. And No!! he won’t be doing it again.

“I did the first half of the marathon in good time....around 2hours. But then from mile 16 onwards the pains kicked in... the knees went sore, the muscles tightened until finally at mile 21 I "hit the brick wall"...that is the lactic acid built up to almost cramp me.”
“I stopped jogging and reverted to a fast walk until I felt able to jog again... but this jog may as well have been a slow walk!”

His final time! - 4hrs 45mins, just ahead of Jade ‘the minger’ Goody, although she was in an ambulance eating a burger at the time.
Well done Tom, maybe now you can come back and actually play some rugby!
