In the words of Victor Meldrew....I don't believe I have done this!But I have.. WHOO HOO!
Annette, Chantelle and I set off with Sam Logan (another London runner) from Jersey Pearl in St Ouen just after 9.15 am.....and set off anti-clockwise along the coast.....the wether was absolutely perfect; dry, slightly overcast and the sun peeped out or the last 6 miles!
3 hours and 41 mins - and lots of laughing later - Sam had a great run too (much faster than me and also a lot , lot younger!) we ran to Victor Hugo apartments at Greve D'Azette and then back to Havre des pas pool to dunk our legs - even Sam joined us too!
The results are in from Geraldine....

m 13 17 min 5 sec ( including some walking)
m 14 16 min 7 sec ( including some walking)
Lovely sea dunk to ice our legs!What great healing therapy that is....love it!
14 miles on target taking 3 hrs 41 mins as planned.
Mixed trail and road coastal course. Steady running from Sal with increased walking spells later on...as always expected.
Perfect cool running weather with some wind.
Sal took extra carbs on board all week in preparation, and took Maxim at 3 mile intervals and jelly cubes later on. Better fueled all round and feeling all the better for it.
Same route planned for next week, and I anticipate Sal running through the 14 miles to attain her 16. Likely finish somewhere around Green Island.
