One HUGE PB!
Hi, this is Strewth! CJ has left town - off to the coast for some R & R. With no internet access she has asked me just to enter her results as there are probably a few interested CRs out there!
Marathon time: 3hours 26mins 35secs - a PB of 14mins!
Average pace per km: 4:50
Place in age group: second
CJ ran a great race and had an absolutely wonderful day in ideal conditions. She met up with lots of CRs before and after the race and had a long chat with Wobblyman at the after party. Lulu greeted her with chocolate at the finish line and Wobbly presented her with chocolate at the after party so she hasn't stopped smiling. We had a fantastic night at dinner later and she is on a great big high.
Woo hoo - one very happy CJ - calves a bit tight but feeling great and very relaxed as she's enjoying coffee by the beach. I am so proud of my awesome friend. CJ is a legend!

CJ is a legend and it was amazing to see you running and looking so strong all the way through. Just fantastic! And second in your age group too; I hope they gave you some race bling!
Enjoy the chocolate and the holiday and see you soon.
Thanks Strewth. And what a damn great run by you too. Better than great, fantastic!!!
CJ, I just knew you could do. I'm so pleased you had the confidence to go for it. I really enjoyed running nearby for a little while and comparing what song was playing every now and then :-)
You really are a legend - a massive PB and a category podium finish to boot. Not a bad morning's work!
Hi again Strewth!!

She is some woman, wow!!
Perfect time to go to the beach and rest, just in time!!

Awesome effort CJ. Congratulations
Huge Congrats on a great Pb and second placed medal.
What an achievement after the last two weeks beforehand.
All the training has paid off.
So, go and have a chocky and a coffee.
Hi my blog name. You're a good writer - much better than CJ. Keep posting.
CJ, tell me your secret. Not the one about running so fast (that would have been due to giving up chocolate), but the one about smiling the whole way. Incredible.
WOW WOW WOW - CONGRATULATIONS CJ!!!!! What a speedy lady! I can't believe you managed to take so much time off your previous PB! Thanks Strewth for filling us in!!
Nice one CJ - that's great stuff!
I wish I had more composure the day before the run. I was stressed and full of anxiety, so much so speaking was a real challenge. I heard you announced coming over the line and as I was at the end of the race, enjoyed congratulating you on the awesome effort and result. Yeah you!
That is so awesome!!!!!
Enjoy your R&R and hurry back with a race report!
Whoohoo! Great job CJ! That is a sweet time, and even sweeter to PR by such a big margin. Congratulations!
Congrats CJ. Man it's game on now you crushed my 3:27 PB!
Very glad you had such a good race!
Fabulous news, CJ!! 14 minutes PB & 2nd in your age category..what more could you hope for? Enjoy your well earned holiday at the beach...lucky you!
We're all SO proud of you CJ!
You deserve a rest (and lots of chocolate).
