...in the space of a few weeks Life as we know has changed irrevociably. Coronavirus (covid 19) has taken the world by storm, literally. Countries are shut down, our borders here in Australia, and Tasmania, have closed (and being an island continent makes it somewhat easier to control) and projects, plans,, races, wedding and funerals, … Continue reading What a change..

2020 – time to start again
I just realised it's been 6 months since I posted last. So much has happened. Little did I know that the 2 days later my mum would have taken her last breath and everything went pair shaped.

For the first time in around 8 weeks I went our for a run last night. Oh. My.God.It wasn't just hard, it hurt.Yeah it was warm, but not excessively so to cause a problem, yet I struggled like it was 40C. I felt like a fat slug trying to run through quick sand.

Crank-e 5k: 16/9/18
What can I say? This was one of my best runs. After Ross and being under prepared I got myself sorted and in two weeks turned it around. While 5km is not long it is a fast run, and I wanted to feel confident on the flat loop and be able to push myself. I … Continue reading Crank-e 5k: 16/9/18
Ross 10k – 2/9/18″
It's been a week since and I'm only just getting around to posting this. I'd actually forgotten, being busy with work and trying to calm my quad. I'd done the training but missed hills and strength. Ok, so all I'd done is some running. I arrived on the day half an hour early, perfect time … Continue reading Ross 10k – 2/9/18″
