My futile pursuit of a last sub-3 hour marathon, 43 years after the first: A single kilometre
http://davebyrnes.blogspot.com/2014/05/a-single-kilometre.html
My futile pursuit of a last sub-3 hour marathon, 43 years after the first. Single track running on. This morning's Terrigal Trotters. 125km run is yet another of my favourites. It has a variety of terrain, including roads, trail, hills and flat, and is a true test of fitness. I usually look forward to the run and particularly the one kilometre of very technical single track that climbs gradually through the Kincumba Mountain Reserve. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

My futile pursuit of a last sub-3 hour marathon, 43 years after the first: A year on
http://davebyrnes.blogspot.com/2014/06/a-year-on.html
My futile pursuit of a last sub-3 hour marathon, 43 years after the first. Still moving well at the 12km mark. This time a year ago, I ran the Macleay River Marathon. After just two weeks training following three weeks of hiking. I was pleased and surprised to finish in 3:24, a good kick-off in my campaign to run a sub-3 hour marathon four months later. What a difference a year makes. Not quite so smooth at 25km. I plodded along, probably more than a minute per kilometre slower than I had been running, w...

My futile pursuit of a last sub-3 hour marathon, 43 years after the first. Countryside near Jacksons Track. The 19km Jacksons Track - Aqueduct Run. Started out with the same gradual descent out of the forest into a pretty rural valley along an unsealed road, before turning east and joining Jacksons Track, a quiet rural road (gravel in those days) made famous as the birthplace of the Lionel Rose.

My futile pursuit of a last sub-3 hour marathon, 43 years after the first. Just plain good fun. The scene just after Avoca Lagoon was opened to. The ocean on an earlier occasion. I wasn't going to write a blog post today, but I enjoyed this morning's run so much, I wanted to recount the adventure. To the north and south of Terrigal, from where the Trotters. Run at 6:00am every Saturday morning, are two coastal lagoons, Wamberal. This morning's run, Avoca Amphitheatre. Just opened Wamberal Lagoon mouth.

My futile pursuit of a last sub-3 hour marathon, 43 years after the first. Sunrise over Canberra from Red Hill. I have been in Canberra. The last few days, sadly, for the funeral of a loved and respected uncle. A silver lining to the trip was the chance to go for a few short runs in the southern suburbs of Canberra along roads and trails I used to run when staying with my Canberra relatives many years ago. The trail atop Red Hill. Canberra suburbs from Red Hill. I ran the same 10km loop.

My futile pursuit of a last sub-3 hour marathon, 43 years after the first. Every now and then. Some of the Terrigal Trotters team on the way to the. Woodford to Glenbrook 25km Trail Race. It is nine months since my last Woodford to Glenbrook 25km trail run. It was postponed three months last year because of flooding), and my life during those nine months has been quite eventful, particularly on the health front. Five months ago, when dealing with the Deep Vein Thrombosis. Slow recovery walk this morning.

My futile pursuit of a last sub-3 hour marathon, 43 years after the first: Good and bad
http://davebyrnes.blogspot.com/2014/05/good-and-bad.html
My futile pursuit of a last sub-3 hour marathon, 43 years after the first. Along The Great North Walk. Dank dark rainforest gullies. Right from the start my heel was painful as I ran, and the further I went the more painful it got. It wasn't bad enough to stop me running, but it made me limp and shorten my stride, both impacting my running efficiency and my speed. I tried to avoid forcing it, and resigned myself to hobbling along at a slower pace. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).
