Train. Improve. Repeat.
This week has been a good and bad week. At the beginning of the week I was still struggling with my running. I talked about it in my last post and have deduced it is the time of the year. I have been feeling like my times have not been improving even though I have been... Continue Reading →
About this time of year every year I start to reflect on the year that has been and what I'd like to try and achieve in the next 12 months of my running. This year has been an interesting one since I had my little boy part way through the year but it has been... Continue Reading →
Hope you are having a good week of training! It's been beautiful here in Brisbane with gorgeous blue skies everyday. I've been taking full advantage getting out and about with baby M. I've slowly been getting back into my running which has been great, baby is 15 weeks now so I feel like I'm good... Continue Reading →
Wow what a weekend it has been although mine has not been as strenuous as some. My beautiful South African friend finished a 168km run over 5 days around the Mont Blanc area and some of my friends completed Tough Mudder as I mentioned in my last post. It's so awesome to have challenges and... Continue Reading →

It suddenly dawned on me today that this time next week I will have run the Mothers Day race in Brisbane. I entered the 4k... Continue Reading →
I've really been pushing the training this week and this week has been a real step up a notch in my efforts. I don't know what happened but on Sunday I was exhausted and demotivated after my 10.5k and then on Monday I was on fire to train and push to new limits- awesome -... Continue Reading →
My wonderful friend is a personal trainer. We run together and we sometimes do weights together, but I have never really had an appreciation for the group fitness style of training thinking I didn't need to do it. So anyway she recently started another round of her Fit Camp training sessions on a Sunday afternoon... Continue Reading →
As it's new years eve I have been thinking a lot about my new year resolutions for 2012. I know many people think new year resolutions are a waste of time and are made to be broken - but I think it's good to have some idea of what you would like to achieve in life... Continue Reading →
