Simon does a half!

That would be a half marathon, not a half pint :-).

Sunday I headed off into town to join Kevin and his family to cheer Simon on in his first half marathon. He only started training about six weeks ago, and he wasn't a regular runner beforehand. Initially I think its fair to say some of his friends were a tad sceptical, but he proved us all wrong, and was very happy with his time of 2:22:24.

We managed to see him just after mile 4, coming up to mile 9 and again at the finish. He missed us at the finish tho - he was completely in the zone and had that finishing line in his sights!

Well done Simon :-)
