I'm so proud of my lovely daughter Rose! She ran the London Marathon today and finished in 5 hours 28 mins - her planned time was 5 hours 30 so she kept it all together!

No Marathon pics yet but this is Rose on an earlier run.

Congrats! My mate at work ran it as well. He's booked tomorrow off the wuss.

I think Rose may have done the same!

Bloody well done!

You really must be proud! How's she feeling?

Yes - well done - that's a great achievement.

She was feeling fine when I spoke to her about half an hour after the finish but she was obviously still on a high! Bet she's tired and sore now! - but very happy!

1 mile round - that's quite a waist measurement !
I don't think you've quite grasped the kind of training you need to put in for an event like this.

..... 6 foot under might have been more realistic....

I think it's confirmation that a degree of madness runs in the family.

I'd be proud to think she's a chip of the old block! BTW - she wants to do it again!

Only a degree of madness? I'd call it full blown certifiable!

Brilliantly well done though, She's done what many can't - and to her timings too! Absolutely ace.

She must be some sort of machine to do that!

..and yes I did finally find a use for that emoticon. I think, thats the first time it's ever been used...?
