Thanchu...Target this time is just to finish. Regardless of how long it will take Washiku,I think you can do three and half hours. Yes, you drove me to it. But 3.5? NOOO! Dont trust me too much. Target is just finish this year. Lets talk about time next year, God willing. We will be cheering you on,42kms isn't for the fainthearted, i just love your determination and courage .I still think you can do under 4hrs,lets wait and see . Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around....

kysse wrote:washiku. I want to commend all those Wazuans who intend to take part in the Stanchart Marathon. It is for a good cause, and also good for you I intend to do the 42Km (again). I have a lot of respect for anyone who is doing either 21K or 42K for the first time. It is a brave decision. I recall how scared I was when I laced up for my first full marathon. All the best.

I see people coming down the other way to check into the stadium, and I think....just a few metres...Ole! Kumbe there is the corner and dropping to Msa road and back up, my psyche got smashed up like a cheap glass...-hauling ass to the finish line from that point was great torture All the same, good run.

Hongera to the participants. Just learnt that a dear friend who was also participating collapsed and was rushed to hospital. So far, scans show a clot in the right side of the brain. Life is like playing a violin solo in public and learning the instrument as one goes on.

Unofficial 2h 47m. Time gets worse every year, but then again, I'm getting older and heavier......

Let me tell you my Bro, the worst mental torture they have done to us in the 42 is you run all the way from Nyayo to Vitafoam, past Panari, you can back to Nyayo, then back to Vitafoam and then back to Nyayo to finish. For mental peace, I would prefer running all the way to Mlolongo and back than that loop. Hujuma... Mateso.

Hizo clots hutoka wapi daktari? How can they be avoided/prevented?

Congratulations bwana, 42km is an extraordinary feat.
