Great North Run 2011

Another epic day on Tyneside for this years great north run, starting to become an annual event for me now. My target for the half marathon course was to post a sub-2hr time and I was delighted when the timer shower 1hr 58 when I crossed the finish line in South Shields. It wasn't easy though. The rain came convieniently as the route started heading uphill, for about 5km it was a wet, hard slog but well worth it. Highlights including the stunning red arrows, chanting in the tunnels, cheering and support from the fantastic geordie crowds made it another amazing experience.
