All calm before the storm (of a holiday)

Posted by bobbys , 16 March 2012 - - - - - - · 179 views

I've been a little quiet on the blog of late - probably because I'm about to go on holidays in little over a week. It's also given me time to enjoy my running rather than using it to train for something.

Up until last week, I was hell bent on running 70km per week as per normal. Then, a little heavy rain (well 110mm in 24hrs) changed the...

3 weeks later - where has the time gone

Posted by bobbys , 12 February 2012 - - - - - - · 190 views

Wow - it's been three weeks since my last blog - where has the time gone.

I managed to slowly get back into my running routine and now do 17km every Monday and Wednesday. Times are slowly getting better however the humidity is not helping.

I ran the Canterbury Aus Day 5km - It has to be one of the best 5Km runs in the country. Free entry, race chip...

Post Smc Marathon And Holidays

Posted by bobbys , 22 January 2012 - - - - - - · 138 views

So it's been a week since SMC and given that I took the family on a holiday down the South Coast (Jervis Bay), I thought I'd take it easy. Normally after a marathon I would take a week off running and then ease in. This time, given that I took the marathon a little easier than I would normally, I went for a light run on wednesday, 3 days after. I...

Smc Marathon Day

Posted by bobbys , 15 January 2012 - - - - - - · 122 views

Well - Marathons ae meant to be a challenge - to test one's abilities and to take you out of your comfort zone. I normally would approach this with a "more traditional" approach and include a couple of 30+km runs - and then taper out.

This time around, I jumped the gun, entered and then hoped for the best - at least a 25km run would...

Marathon -3 Days

Posted by bobbys , 12 January 2012 - - - - - - · 127 views

So I woke up this morning after a sleep in (even though I stirred at 0430 which is when I wake up for a run)at 0600 and felt great. Legs felt good and no niggles to complain of. Maybe I've had the whole marathon training caper wrong. Maybe I should do a few spur of the moment ones in the future (thanks Eagle lol) - at least it minimises any...

January 11Th - New Year, New Start

Posted by bobbys , 11 January 2012 - - - - - - · 247 views

So here I am, at work - contemplating life and thought I'd start a blog. To be honest, I'm scared at the thought of running a Marathon this sunday with only a 25km long run over the last 8 weeks. I've had a good base for the last 2 months but very underdone with the long ones. If I can make it to 32km (after 2nd attempt at Redfern St), then I...
