 <\/p>\n

Before I sat down to write this blog, I read RunThrough Run Club<\/a> member Sophie’s recap<\/a> of the weekend’s hot and sweaty Wimbledon Common Half Marathon<\/a><\/strong>. As we waited nervously beforehand together, ran a lot of the race together and went to Wetherspoons to recover with the RunClub post-race, there’s nothing I can say here that Sophie hasn’t covered better than I could. So, for all you data-lovers out there, here’s a recap of the day with a few key numbers:<\/p>\n
