Well done Jeff, great time and unless I am mistaken, you beat the Belgian guy who beat you in last years Marina Alta series, so it looks good for this years series!
You are quite correct Colin, I beat him by about two minutes. He went off like the clappers and I thought that he had perhaps started a bit too fast. I went past him with around six or seven km to go, so he probably still has the edge on me over the shorter distances. I have written an article for both CBN and Euro Weekly News, which,hopefully they will use. The article is principally about 48-year-young Maxine McKinnon, who posted an incredible 1:21:58. She said that she plans to have a go at the over 50's marathon world record next year. I also mentioned the CB Striders in it. The Dutch lady (Lineke) who has run with CBS recently won the Vets B category, by the way.

Well done Jeff, I could only manage your time when I was 25 years younger than you. Keep taking those little blue pills!
