    Oooh good luck! I've just signed up for my first half marathon in March - furthest I've run is 9k so far so have to up my game to get to 21k! Hope all goes well for you!
    Have you trained much for it? You say you haven't done 13 miles before.

    There are few joys in life like the feeling of a marathon medal being placed around your neck....
