Keen to Race

Training is going well now that things are settling down a little. New job is going well and the new house is starting to feel like home.

The only bad thing happening is little Jack having Pneumonia. Poor little fella is in a bad way. He's tough so no doubt he'll be back to him self soon.

Got out a 2 hour run on Sunday and threw in a nice little climb about 1hr 45m in to it just for fun!!!! Must say that I didnt enjoy it all that much. Might have been quicker to walk up it!!!

Heading to Hobart on May 18 for the City to Casino. Hoping to cover the 11km in around 35 minutes, or at the very least secure a top 5 spot. Kim Gillard (won last year)is planning to run as is Grant Page (2nd last year)and Mark Jackson (2:24 Marathon). Should be a good day out.

Received some new clothing from Saucony late last week and must say I am impressed. Red is the go for 2008. I also ordered some new Racing Flats (see pic) today and cant wait to test them out in Hobart.
