What do you do when the #world is in #lockdown??
Me, Iāve got my head in the books trying to finalise all my Nutrition Courses and to add more to my repertoire. I get out once a day for my coffee and essential shopping and I also might throw in a 5km. Funny that, Iāve now got all the time in the world, and no time for trainingā¦ Iām guessing that wasnāt the issue. Motivation, mindset, whateverā¦

When Injuries suck...
When Injuries suckā¦
After successfully completing my 50km run in June, I was blissfully unaware of what was ahead.
After being diagnosed with osteoporosis in 2018, and confirmed at the beginning of 2019, I needed to know why/how this had happened to me. Roll on a few months of tests, and the completion of my major run, it was time to take on the dreaded GLUTEN CHALLENGE.. I had been eating a Ketogenic diet forā¦

Mandatory Gear
Hi,
Welcome to this weeks blog on Mandatory Gear and what you might need to carry when attempting a larger trail run.Ā
Last weekend saw a few of our runners out at the local trail running event which included 100 miles, 100kms, 50, 42, 30, 21, 15, and 5kms. The events were spread over two days, and the āmilerā and āhundieā had 32 hours to complete numerous loops of 21km.Ā Runners cameā¦

The Tan Ultra
The day I became an Ultra Runnerā¦
The prep was done, the training complete and the mindset was positive. A 4am start for the journey into Melbourne, and the start line was at The Pilars of Wisdom at The Tan. Commonly and affectionately known locally as the TAN, it is officially termed the Tan Track. The TAN name origins are disputed: a surface ofĀ TAN-coloured stone aggregate or, the track isā¦

After the Coburg 6 hour Event in April, I headed out in May to compete in another one. This one was at Princes Park in Melbourne, and run by my favourite Trailsplus. We started our day off with a parkrun, then headed over to the start area. The loop was 2.5km in length and was in a busy part of the city. Coach G was happy to help with some #vollieduty and I headed out for my 6 hoursā¦ Watching theā¦

Marysville Marathon Festival
I need to start by giving you a brief history lesson. Marysville Marathon Festival started in 2009 (the year we arrived in Australia) after the Black Saturday fires destroyed the area. The local doctor decided to organise a run to bring the public/tourists/travellers back to the area to help regenerate and bring much needed cash to businesses.
Trailsplus eventually took over the event, and, asā¦

Wonderfalls -September
ādo epic shitā
Wonderfalls was the longest run Iāve ever done ā and most of it was hiking at the Back of the Packā¦ It had been raining for days when we turned up at Lorne for this event. It was being held by Trailsplus, who we normally volunteer for. Coach G was injured, and I was running on my own. We had taken the caravan down, and staying just a few kilometres from the start line. I hadā¦

Wonderland Weekend
This little chickie is not very fast, and to say I am sloth like, could be an understatementā¦ so, when it comes to races like Wonderland, I do not make the qualification standardsā¦ Coach G, however, doesā¦ so, this weekend was for himā¦Ā
It started with a parkrun launch at Wimmera, Horsham. 5k done. Then back to Halls Gap for my 8k run out on the trailsā¦ (thank goodness it was NOT where Run Theā¦

Half Marathon 3 of 3 (or 5/5)
Here I amā¦ Half Fanatic #17391. This was my goal for the year and I completed it on Saturday 21st July 2018. The plan was to run 3 official Half Marathons in 3 months and I did it. It also means I have completed 5 half marathons in 5 months, so I will aim to carry on running at least ONE per month. And they donāt always have to be events, as long as I run over 21kmā¦

Sri Chinmoy ā Albert ParkĀ 17/6/18
Half Marathon number two was possibly just as bad as number one. This time the weather was against usā¦ It was cold, wet windy and Albert Park is very open to the elements. Coach G and I had decided to run our own raceā¦ He had to have a fast half as a qualifier for Wonderland and Two Bays and I needed a Half Marathon in June in my quest to be a HALF FANATICā¦ (Google themā¦)

We are approximately half way through April. Iām over 150km short of my #run1000miles2018, but on track if it was kilometresā¦ Silly meā¦ My brain is telling me that I should be signing up for Half Fanatics, which means I have to run 3 Half Marathons in less than 90 days, totally doableā¦ (bahahahahaha) I have signed up to Volunteer at a few more trail runs with the awesome Team George, Altra Redā¦

March 2018
On Sunday, March 18th, I headed out for a run. The weather conditions were on my side, as it had cooled down dramatically, and we had a few showers forecast. It all started well, until 3k in the heavens opened and down it came. Luckily, I had packed a rain jacket, just in case. I carried on regardless, as it was a welcome relief from the heat we had been having for weeks. The plan was too see howā¦

February - a month of PB's
February ā a month ofĀ PBās
February was a quiet month in regards to my mileage. Itās still really warm and muggy, but I was still out there on a Saturday morning at parkrun. On the first Saturday of the month, Point Cook parkrun put on PACERās to help people try to achieve a āPersonal Bestā or PB (some call it a PR or personal record). It was a fluke that I turned up at Point Cook on this day, and not really out to followā¦
