Matt Wilson Instagram – From 5km – 42km in 10weeks and finished in 3hrs 40min.
The longest distance I ran during training was 20km.
Couldn’t be prouder of myself right now! The runners high is real.
I started cramping at around 29km and it hit the hurt locker soon after that. Seeing so many people push themselves to the limit (some beyond) was powerful. Definitely not the last marathon I’m entering!
Thank you to @jessicaleewilson1 for pushing me to run even when the kids were running wild. It would have been impossible without you.
@lonsdale.build for bringing me back to life with 6km to go! Legend!
@_iron_ryan_ the world championship iron man competitor who wrote me a SOS running plan that kept me injury free.
And @newbalance for sponsoring my run with the best kicks for my mission.
