Benidorm Half Marathon - By Paul Basnett

Can I give a big thanks to the people who sponsored me for my first half marathon in Benidorm.

I must admit I was very surprised to hear BA Baracus on the flight over because I thought he would never get on no damn plane!
As for the half marathon itself it told me, as if I didn't know, that I don't do enough training as my legs didn't really want to know after about 10 miles with cramp in my calves but I still enjoyed it!
I am not even sure I was that good at the other half of the marathon, which was the drinking and I thought I could drink :S

All in all though a good trip and would go again.
If you haven't sponsored and would still like to then you still can at http://www.justgiving.com/paul-basnett

Thanks again, Paul
