Well this is
one for the books!!!
I don’t
think I have ever run/swim in such rainy, thundering and lightning conditions.
But even though conditions where terrible it was an experience of a life time.
As many of us runners know preparing mentally for a marathon is just as
important as the mileage, well I had a great plan of where and when I was going
to use my 3 Gu’s that I had taken along with me, only to find out after the 2km
I had managed to lose all 3 of them L. Never the less I managed to charm
some blonde and convinced her to give me one of hers. (Sorry Angie, runners
must do what runners must do, ha ha ha).
I managed a
SUB 4 hour but only because Mike helped me through and once again a BIG thanks
to Mike aka “coach”. The best part of the event though was Dowie’s beers at the
end of the race.
