I know! I know!
I didn't say. I did and do feel pretty bad when many, many of you asked me if I was still running or how far.
I just couldn't share. I needed to just do.
It's as amazing as it is overwhelming. 
The crowd is insane!! Loud, supportive, and terrifying.
It's definitely something you have to give yourself time to just sit on for a while and digest because it's easy to be overwhelmed by it.
The kindness from complete strangers handing out pieces of orange, haribos, or ice lollies, because dam! It was hot!!! Or just simply shouting your name feels so utterly foreign in this crazy world that it confuses you for a while. It's wonderful and we need more of it. 
I don't remember seeing Big Ben 🤯 
Although I may well post more about running, I'll likely not post about times, splits, headwinds, or any of that jazz because right now, that's not what it's about. It's just about getting out there and doing it, no phone, no thoughts, no pressure, no time pressures. 
Thank you to my keepers of secrets and not making me feel pressured to chat about this too much in the lead up, but mostly for always reassuring me that I could ✨️
