All things running related
Last week the run for SAAC was ‘Run for Ray’, out at Troppers 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 …
I never thought that I would be able to run 3km let alone 21km a year ago. How things have changed. How I have changed. I have achieved so much already this year, and I hope to achieve so much more. I don’t remember when I put a half marathon on my list of goals …
I’m getting one step closer to my goals in pretty much all aspects and area’s in my life. One of my goals is to run 5km in under 25mins (so a sub 25). Yesterday I got pretty damn close. It was the Steven Baird Handicap at the SAAC. I was given a handicap of 8.25mins. My …
Yesterday was running club day. I was a bit nervous to be honest because for the seniors it was a long one, 16km. The furthest I had run was 13km, and that was doing 5:1 intervals (run:walk). However I knew what I wanted to do. I wanted to keep at pace. My pace being 6.30 …
Today while up the street and few people I know from mutual friends congratulated me on my running victory on the weekend, as they saw it in the paper (it was featured in the free weekly paper, and then again in the local paper). You can see the article here It feels weird to get …
How things change in a year. If a year ago you would me I would be a runner, I properly would have laughed in your face. Never would I have expected how my life has changed in just a year. See it comes down to time again. I use to always look at runners, and …
Saturday 2nd of June we drove to Horsham to 1. do a bit of shopping, but 2. to do the SAAC run. I wasn’t sure how Miles would go, considering his age. However he did really well. He ran the 1km under 10mins. Yes his run, was a walk for me, but that’s not the …
From May 2012 I’ve said it before, but I never thought I would be a runner (again). My mum runs, and I use to run in high school (hence the again). I’m glad however that I have a love of running, it really is cheaper than therapy. Well it looks like we have another runner …
From May 2012 So today was my 11k Run The Gap run. ( http://www.runthegap.com.au/) I signed up for this on the same day that I signed up for Run For The Kids (so back in Feb I believe). I initally entered to do 6kms, but changed it to the 11km. Back in Feb there was …
Originally from August 2011 – My Fitness Pal I’m not a runner I use to be a runner back in high school (many moons ago). In fact, I use to do a lot of cross country running. It was hard work, let me tell you. I gave it up because I just didn’t like it. …
