    Aww huge congratulations to you, so glad you had such a great race, fab time but just wonderful that all the hard work with training paid off. I was at Red start too, it was my first time doing the London Marathon course but 2nd Marathon. I had done the London virtual marathon in 2021. Enjoy celebrating your achievement and hope you recover well 🎉❤
