Train. Improve. Repeat.
It's been a couple of weeks since I did my trail race before flying to the UK, but I decided I'd best write it up otherwise I would forget. How could I forget though - it was a crazy hot day! I had originally entered to run the 8k race but my friend who was... Continue Reading →
I haven't written for a while as life again has been pretty crazy, and then coming down with a cold it hasn't been much fun in the last week. I thought I would continue on from my last post and talk you through the recent City to South race I ran - my first proper road... Continue Reading →
There are so many fun runs across Australia and the world now days, and as a result it has become a great way for charities to use them as ways to fundraise. The Women in Super Mother's Day Classic (MDC) is one of those - in aid of breast cancer research. I've run the MDC... Continue Reading →
Hope you had a lovely Easter! The last week has been a bit of a write off. After running the Twilight Half Marathon I got sick, and today is the first day in a week that I have felt remotely like exercising. I didn't run - instead I worked on my wobbly belly and arms... Continue Reading →
I should have known it was going to be a tough day when I woke up with a headache, and feeling decidedly under par - knowing I had to run the Twilight half marathon at 5pm later in the day. I hadn't been too well in the week leading up to the race and hadn't run... Continue Reading →
I am sat on New Year's Eve with a smile on my face. No it's not because I have lots of things planned for the evening - (my night will be pretty boring actually) but it is because I am allowed to run again! I went to the physio yesterday and he says there is... Continue Reading →
It's been an interesting week or so which landed me right back in the physio's office and no running thanks to bursitis on my hip and a bit of the same on my shoulder. I thought I would freak out but I was actually quite surprised at how calm I was when my physio said... Continue Reading →
Last week wasn't the best week. In fact since I got back from my trip overseas 5 weeks ago things haven't exactly gone according to plan! The plan was to get back, get the 1kg off that I gained, get back into running and really push the training. Three things happened: I got sick It was... Continue Reading →
Sunday just gone was the Bridge to Brisbane. I think my neighbour is psychic around these things as when I had the last race - River Run 100k - he kept me awake, and this time he left his lights on which beamed right into where I was sleeping and I had a terrible nights... Continue Reading →
Yesterday was the River Run 100k. My morning didn't start off too well since the neighbour next door kept us awake all night so when the alarm went off at 5am I was already awake and exhausted! Shaun picked me up at 5.40 and we parked near his work place and he had convinced me... Continue Reading →
