MM Pacer

I signed up to be a pacer for the Melbourne Marathon. It is something that I have always wanted to do and I am really looking forward to it.

Unfortunately I did not get the 4:00 group as I would have preferred, but I will lead the the 4:15 group. I expect that 90% of my group will be first timers and I am can't wait to see if I can help them finish.

Lead up to Melbourne Marathon

A mixed bag of running over the past 6 weeks. After running the Tan Ultra (only 11 laps) on top of my injuries I was not able to run without severe pain for nearly two weeks. Slowly eased back into it with a 30km run (!!!) and some interval work.

I am going to run MM anyway and will probably be happy with a sub-3:40 based on my lack of training. It does frustrate me because 8 weeks ago I was doing the kms and starting the speed work for a real bash at a 3:20ish time. I guess I will just go out and enjoy the day.
