Well I couldn't see him anywhere on the map. So he'd obviously given up and ducked into a pub.
Or - just theorising - maybe he'd finished by the time I looked at 6.15pm.

Thankyou all - was such a fab experience. I'm not sure if I am the first to live-blog the 10k! It was lovely to finish and read all the Tweets and postings from Another Place... Mwah to you all.
Perhaps I can be a bit cheeky - If anyone would like to sponsor me, I was running it to raise money for the Cystic Fibrosis Trust. The daughter of some very close friends was diagnosed last year. The CF rust fund vital research and support families and carers.
You can sponsor me securely with a card at http://www.run4isla.com Some of you lovely people have already been incredibly generous and I am deeply grateful to you.
I should have more time to spend here again now (oh, and doing the project on the house in case Mrs FW is monitoring me!!) - except I've now got the bug... I want to keep running - doing the 10k in under an hour next time, followed by a half-marathon in October and.... and.... etc!
Thanks again to those whove motivated and supported me since I started in Feb - you are all special people.

Tempting as it was, I had a carefully worked out hydration strategy Penners. I drank so much this morning, I was bursting for a pee on the start line! I daren't drink on the course in case I exploded!

Come off it Penners - I know it was you that passed me dressed as a potato as we passed the 9k mark. Your secret is safe with me, although you need to be careful wih your back you know. :wink:

Not the first, as I saw two others on the course as I watched you.
They both left 30 mins before you, but as I said on the other place, you made up such good time you over took one of them, so the first to overtake someone live

Robin, I'm astounded at your achievement. Well done. Also, you dont look like you anymore. I'm less sure if that's a good thing!
Hope you aren't too sore today.
