I hope to do this again . It was my first attempt at a marathon distance and I want another go. It was small and local , we were taken by bus to the start and the course which was 100% trail went through forest before picking up the River Neris which we followed as it wound its way towards Vilnius . There were only two water stations at 14km and 27km so it was important to carry extra water . No other kit was needed as the trail was well marked . Despite this I still managed to take a wrong turn , my fault due to lack of experience , head down I carried straight on missing clear markers . My strava  which shows a moving time of 6hr 4 mins and a distance of 45.6 km at 8 min km makes better reading than the official results . I was totally knackered at the end and was struggling but at no time did I feel like quitting and look back on it now as a big achievement . I found the trail harder than running on the road but the whole thing had a sense of adventure . Hats off to the guys doing the 82km route who passed me offering encouragement .

BREXIT CHALLENGE

      Before I start I just want to raise the question of Brexit and I will try not to mention it  again , if that's possible! We wouldn't be doing it if not for Brexit .So lets say it was inspired by Brexit . I have learned so much from Brexit that I didn't know before . There are 28 members of the European Union , could I name them all , not a chance . Can I now , yes I think so .There are 19 countries in the Euro Zone , could I name them , no way , can I now errr probably not . I have a fair grasp now of the single market and how it works and I get why trade deals are so complicated and important . In fact I am now more European than I ever was .        So why are we doing it ? Because we can for a start , we were very lucky to sell our business after 25 plus years in 2007 just before the financial crisis of 2007-2008 . We now run a small online retail business from home which gives us a small income , but also bags of free time . Lucky us , b...

Sunday 17th March 2019 Paphos Half Marathon No 27 Cyprus

Paphos Half Marathon Sunday 17th March 2019 No 27 Cyprus Richard 02:07:43 Jackie 02:20:46 If you want to combine a holiday with a bit of running this is ideal . The only draw back is the 5hr flight which was our longest yet but with the whole series of "Line of Duty " downloaded on my phone the time passed quickly . On all our flights I would say 70% to 80 % of passengers are watching films or playing games on phones and tablets and I wouldn't be without mine . A pleasant addition to this trip was the inclusion for the first time of the "Wine Run ". It took place on the Friday and was a 5km route round a wine estate up in the hills . The 30 euro entry included a t- shirt the bus to the start and back and a  tour of the winery (including tastings) after . It was a huge success and massively oversubscribed as it was limited to 200 but I guess that could easily have been doubled .   The race was on the Sunday and after a couple of cloudy days the su...
