At one stage I was going to run the GC Marathon as a nice long training run. On Friday afternoon when I went to enter the race, I decided that it would probably be better for me to do a quick Half Marathon.
Saturday afternoon and those plans changed again when I caught up with a friend who was doing her first Half and aiming for a 1:50 time. I decided then that I wasn't in the right frame of mind (or training!) to run a PB so I chose to run with her to help her out.
So to make up for doing an 'easy' Half, I ran 5km before the start and did another 6km down the marathon course at the finish to clock a steady 32km for the day. We ran 1:50.01 gun time, 1:48.24 net time. I was surprised that it took a little more out of me than I expected and I was sore on Monday.
