Runner-up in the Scottish Marathon Championships held as part of the 2023 London Marathon. Madness! Even though the race was a few days ago now, I still can't quite believe it. I am super proud and overjoyed that a week after Jonas came second and I first in the Scottish Student Championships in the 10 kilometre road race, I have now been able to significantly add to this success.

The rainy weather in London was quite disgusting to be honest. Our motto was to make the best of the situation. And it worked! Jonas improved his best time by 22 seconds to 2:28:52 hours, I improved mine by more than four minutes to 2:51:09 hours. Best time, a national runner-up title in our adopted country and an unbelievable running experience (what a great atmosphere that was!) marked the end of a month-long preparation journey. All for this one day. Anyone who thinks it wasn't worth it is mistaken.
