Told everyone who’d listen my target was a sub 3 hour marathon, and there were times today I wish I had kept my mouth shut 🤫. A tough grind in the last two miles but to see the finish line clock flash 2.58 made it all worth it! Delighted!

#Dublinmarathon ✅ Never thought I’d ever say that! It was amazing, but so tough, 26.2 miles is 🤯! 👏 to everyone for toeing the line! Unreal atmosphere, always better inside the barriers! Hauled the body over line in 3.16.53! I used to think the last 50 of a 400m was tough 😂
