First running race in two months and I honestly forgot how much they hurt. Training had been going really well leading into this race so I was hoping to go sub 35min without too much stress. However this did not happen and I faded badly in the second half and managed to come in at 35min 46secs and 5th place overall. However considering the lack of quality running I have been doing in training and 100k hills ride the day before it was still not bad result. So now I have my body at 100% I think it’s time to hit the track for some gut busting intervals to get some speed back in my legs. So if anyone is keen to join let me know as these session are always easier with company.
On a totally unrelated topic it is now exam weeks at Uni and I had my first exam yesterday. It was one of the core units they make you do at Notre Dame and I hated everything about it, but I did enough to pass. I have two more exams next week which I will be hoping to do a lot better in which are relevant to what I am interested in and why I am studying.
Good luck to anyone doing the Perth marathon this weekend it looks like it’s going to be a good race with rumours all the top male Perth long distance runners are going head to head. So I`ll be heading down the finish to see the guys and girls come in.
