So the Heart Challenge is on Sunday. This is my next race and my 1st race since my half marathon on the 15th of July. So what music am I going to listen to? A bit of a mix from what I ran with in my half with some new stuff. I have kept the list short
Last week the run for SAAC was ‘Run for Ray’, out at Troopers Creek. There we had to run up one killer of a mountain! No, I’m not joking, it was hard work, I had to walk 3/4 of that hill, but I wasn’t the only one who walked. Even the best had to walk
