So as most of you know.. I am not a runner. Before March I could barely run 1K without needing a break...despite that I signed up for City to Surf and committed to a 14k run from Sydney CBD (Central Business District or "Downtown") to Bondi Beach. For me, this race is about completion not time - I figure that I can work on time eventually but for my first major run I want to make sure I complete it without stopping/walking.
So I put together a plan with my run date in mind and have been chipping away at it slowly! Its not been an easy as the weather gets cooler & rainier in sydney and that initial motivation just isn't there but I can honestly say it's getting easier.
So 2 months later... I am up to my half way mark! Today I ran just over 7k and I couldn't be more thrilled! And to be completely honest.. everything after 4k just feel good so I guess I am on the right track!
Any who.. with 8 weeks to go and a mega trip to canada planned in July for my sister's wedding -- I hope that I can stay committed and keep up the training so that I can reach my goal!
