Beautiful sunshine and great scenery but a very hilly course. The half marathon was 1 lap with the full marathonteers doing two laps. I still managed to take the wrong turning on the 2nd lap, and if it wasn't for a friendly shout from behind would be lost in the Yorkshire countryside. Managed to sneak under 5 hours thanks to a super quick downhill 5k section at the end of the race.

A lovely day for a jaunt around the Northamptonshire countryside for my 3rd consecutive Shires and Spires 2018 race.

Another hot day for a marathon, this time 4 laps around Roche Abbey and the surrounding countryside with a few hilly sections thrown in for good luck.

Hot hot hot! along the streets of London.

Marathon #24 was less than week after wading through the Suffolk countryside, and was return to Suffolk, but this time for a 2 lap course around the town of Bungay and neighboring villages.

My first marathon of 2018 and a trip to Barrow for day 4 of their summer 4 in 4 days running festival. The evening before and during the race morning there was torrential rain which meant some sections of the course were slightly waterlogged.

This was the first time I'd done back to back marathons. It was flipping cold on the Saturday and rained for most of the Sunday.

The Nottingham Christmas Marathon was held at the national water sports centre at Holme Pierrepont. The marathon consisted of just under 9 laps of 3 miles each.
