Manny, you came across just fine on the Radio Interview,not at all tired.
Perhaps many of us are trying to imagine, to grasp, just exactly what you have done.What it has taken to keep going, when the body was saying stop,stop,stop. And we are in the sport.
Much harder still to grasp the essence if not a hill runner?
Or how do you react to this if you don't even like sport?
An astounding, monumental effort to complete it.
Congratulations again, it was superb to be there.
Wishing Brenda a speedy recovery.
Now put your feet up - at least for a little while.

Well done Manny! A mind boggling achievement. I can't imagine how much you hurt or your shoes smell. Have a beer now.
