Well I can safely say that was a first for me, being attended to by medics That was very very tough today. Annoyingly I started off really well. Was making good time, then hit mile 8 and I was really struggling. I could not get my heart rate to calm down and my breathing become really erratic and I was struggling big time. I felt very sick and dizzy and I ended up having to walk a lot of the last third of the race. Then just before mile 13 I went. Blacked out and struggled to get myself going again. The medics didn’t want me to carry on but i was like I’ve only got two miles left. Then said runners are so stubborn 😅. I’m not allowed to take iron at the moment so I’m not able to sort the anaemia out at the moment. I think there plus the heat really didn’t help today. Was the slowest I’ve been for a long time. I thought I was slow last year, I was half an hour slower today!
