Wednesday 3rd Aug Safe to admit training plans haven't fully been met. I can also share that running in the rain can be invigorating it can just as much become old all too quickly. The body and mind feel strong on the long slow runs but we have had less time for all those smaller runs in between. A 5:30am start to run a half marathon and end the month of July taught us some valuable lessons ahead of the big day. Gloves, beanies and other garments will be required for mudgee because despite the running we did not become warm for even a second. In other news COVID finally got me but knowing this was always going to be more a mental game i'm determined to find the bright spot in it all and bring the mental resilience, grit and inner strength required on the day. Thank you to everyone for your support along the way and for asking about our 'why'. Share

Block 1 done and registration complete

Wednesday 29th Jun We are now into week 5 of our training for Mudgee and have booked our place at the start line come 21 August. The past 4 weeks have required consistent effort and discipline to find enough time around work and personal commitments to get the miles in. We are increasing our training load progressively by 10% each week and have started to join forces once a week to get through our long slow runs. Some days are a bit more of a struggle than others but we know our 'why'. Share
