Was planning on this one, however the Hammies are starting to play up with the extra pace lately. Feel i have to choose one or the other, as a hit out at the half may jeopardise C2S. Will play this one as the cards fall.

I am in too, want a half marathon PB after knocking 27 mins off my marathon PB at Perth Marathon, Have ramped up mileage volume and do two long runs a week now so hoping for a faster half marathon time. Running my long runs a bit faster  than i used to, especially the 2nd medium long run. Did anyone do Wally Cairns x country, I did not realise it was a beach run, 15km of sandhill running....

Are there any pace runners for the Perth HM? I've been right off the boil lately, but I might be tempted out if I can hang on the tail of some one running 90 min.

Or maybe I should just harden up, and get out there for the fun of it!

I'm out for this one unfortunately - physio's orders.  :(  I am battling an injury (shin splints) and hoping I can come good in time for C2S. :Praying:

OK. It's on!

Won't be a PB, but at least I'll know where I stand pre-CTS and Freo HM.

And, bound to be a great morning out running with a crowd!

Twinkle, just smashed a top ten placing at the Perth Half..1:18, very relaxed.. Get yourself fit and I'll drag you to a sub 2:50 at the City to Surf; it's going to be quick...

Keep running(or just start running !) bk

Doh!   It's frustrating sitting on the sidelines, and I see 8th place was there for the taking!  I am desparate to see you on the start line for C2S, but its looking a little shaky because I don't want to jeopardise New York.
