Nothing to separate the 3 Calderglen men at the half way mark in London. Mary is running very even 5k splits, going through 15k in 1:26:11. Go Calderglen!
Stephen holds it together to finish his debut marathon in 3:21:21, whilst Graham came through in the last mile to record 3:25:29 with Scot exactly one minute back in 3:26:29. Well done guys. Looking forward to a blow by blow race report!
Yep a tough one. Not helped by my now signature fall at 6 miles with injured knee elbow shoulder and pride. Watch also broke which I figured was god telling me that time didn't matter. Well done Stephen Scott and graham/ I can't remember if that is the right order! Mary
Thanks for all the local support we got from Irene Hill, Nicola Reilly, Julie Beveridge, and Benny Rooney. He appeared everywhere and was very vocal, it was very encouraging.
Running well, pacing Stephen and Graham up to about sixteen miles and as I was feeling the best I've ever felt in a marathon I decided to pick the pace up a little with Stephen. At 22 miles it all went wrong when my knee locked up. Very frustrating as the rest of me was feeling good. My time of 3:26:28 is still a PB.
Stephen and Graham can decide between them who is doing the race report?

Mary through 35k in 3:40:51 but slowing badly now last 5k was 36:36 and heading for near 4:30 finish
Mary rallied a bit for the last 5k to finish in 4:31:33
Well done Mary for toughing it out. Looks like the second half was hard going.
