Met RJ at the the Tan this morning and the plan was to do 7km.  Must say it felt a little weird going back to the scene of the crime!  We started running down Alexandra Road crossed over the Morrel Bridge and continued down towards Federation Square.  We crossed the Princes Bridge and decided we [...]

running
Well it is official, I am coming out of the closet!  I zipped down to the Coburg Harriers last night and loved every minute of it.  I think I am really becoming “a runner”.  I was so nervous when I was getting ready and then to to top it off when I got there I couldn’t find [...]

Well I finally got out for my run last night after four long days of no running.  I went to the Tan and completed 4km and then walked one lap.  It was a great run.  I only did 4km because I am going down to Coburg Harriers tonight for a training run, yikes!!   I have never ran [...]

Plotting

Posted by: Lee on: January 23, 2007

I am starting to get really down in the dumps as I have been unable to escape the evil clutches of my family and go for run since Friday!!  Thats why in the past I have alway hated training regimes because I can never stick to them because “things get in the way”.  One thing [...]

Hot and sultry all right, not me, the weather!!  I ran 5km down at Princes Park tonight about 8pm and boy was it humid.  When I finished I was sweating badly, especially my head and I didn’t even have my cap on.  Not very ladylike at all.  I was so glad I did it though, [...]

The way my day was panning out yesterday I thought I was going to miss out on my run but at 7.30pm, I escaped!!  Oh, and was it pure bliss or what?  It was a nice night for running.  Although it was a little humid there was a nice cool breeze.  When I finished and [...]

I had intended to go for a run this evening [...]

Cruising

running
Zipped down to the Tan this afternoon and did another 5km run including “the hill”:)  I must admit I was nervous when I approached it as I thought to myself what if I just fluked it the other day?  Well I can officially say, I am able to do that hill.
I am not sure what [...]
