Well I finished the London Marathon and raised £2000 for Whizz Kidz, what a painful experience
that was!!
I have a question regarding the timing of this event which I am somewhat confused about, I had 4:17
on my heart rate monitor but my official time was somewhat slower at 04:35 (I was aiming for sub
4:30 and was convinced I had done this!) How could this be? I started it just as I went over the
start line and stopped it after the finish, as you would. Each time I reached the marker points the
time they were displaying didn't match mine. I also talked to several people who were saying the
same. I cant beleive my monitor would be that much out, it has new bats too. Can someone explain how
the timing works - I though it was just a matter of reading the chip.
Thanks
Richard
