I made it over the finish line at 4:42:04, which is a little under my previous time for Dublin. Thanks to Gina, Jonny and Bink for coming out to meet me at the end and shepherd me to the pub. Although a long way from my best marathon times in Germany, this is the first sub five-hour marathon for a couple of years, so I am pleased with that. Sub 4:30 may be in my grasp again.
Legs still a bit sore but not as sore as when I crossed the line!
well done Al ! Matt
