Wow! I have been off line for a bit. Apologies. I had network connection problems for 2 weeks, then went overseas on a family holiday, ran an ultra, bad flu, Christmas and chaos, and time has just flown! There is to much water under the bridge to catch up, so I will have a … Continue reading
And so another week of running was brought to close. No photos today, but a good read!! This week past was rather over the top for me..two huge assignments had to be re done due to corrupted files and memory stick – and they were my final ones too. Two huge new contracts at … Continue reading
Whilst in my search for a new pair of trail shoes..I am very specific.. I am failing to find the same pair that I have. Tomorrow I will be trialling a pair of Inov8’s…let see. However as one does when surfing the web, I got distracted and saw a post on “should you run in … Continue reading
Another week, another long run, another trail done! Am so lucky to be part of a very enthusiastic inclusive un-official “training group” for our 6 inch trail ultra marathon. Our group has a pretty diverse range of abilities and endurance/speed capacities. But in true trail spirit, this does not matter. Running as a group encourages … Continue reading

Monday was … Continue reading

Then Saturday night had us partaking in the Moonshadow night time trail race of about 12km, with a … Continue reading
Wow. I am running a day late from my normal posting date. But I think I can be excused. Now, I am still doing training for the 6 Inch Ultra. So need to get strength training up, distance and endurance, and sand skills in. So muggins here set herself up for a little … Continue reading
This weekend was my planned PB attempt for a sub 21min 5k done at our local Park Run. After two weeks of phsycing myself up, reducing my weekly training for a bit of a taper to being in optimum form, managing a couple of sub 21mins in training for my 5km dash, I felt I … Continue reading
Good morning. What a fantastic weekend I have had with a great group of people on the trails. Doing nearly 40km over the weekend in spectacular locations and awesome trails, covering single track, open, extremely hilly, slopy, rock, root tangled, wildlife, sand, sand and more sand dunes! Oh my word, those sand dunes killed me… … Continue reading
