First marathon after lockdown - that hurt a bit!

Not run a marathon for nearly 5 months! And in that time I’ve only done short runs at child dictated variable pace! So not surprising it was tough today. Very hot and my feet have gone soft so I got blisters. But it was fabulous to be back with my running buddy and we enjoyed a bit of running and a very long walk! My slowest ever marathon, but oh so good to be back :-)
