Brisbane Twilight Run

Calling bloggers in the greater Brisbane / Gold Coast / Sunshine Coast area (and anyone inter-state if you are interested).  Are you interested in walking / running ?  Would you like to do the Brisbane Twilight Marathon ?

It is on Sunday, 24th March 2013.  Their website is here for all the details.  They have a training program as well (which starts today) so I will have a good look at that and print it off if I feel that it is something that would work in with my exercise program.

I am going to enter the 10km run - not because I can run 10kms (well not at the moment anyway) but because I want to have a goal to aim for.  I want to be training for a reason.  I want to have a purpose behind what I am doing.

I have to go to see my dr, again, about the symptoms I am exhibiting and I want to make an appointment to see a different physio about my knees.  Between the two of them and whatever I have to do, I am going to get on top of how I am feeling and, come out the other side with a healthy body and a great outlook on life.

If there is anyone interested in meeting up after the run - please let me know.  I am more than happy for you to run with me if you want but, I am warning you up front, I don't run quickly.  I did the GC 10km race in 63 mins - can I do it again ?  I have no idea.  Am I going to try to beat that time ?  Not on your life !  Why ?  Because I am not that competitive.  I just want to run because I enjoy it.  And, because there are more hills than the GC run which was completely flat - as are all the roads that I train on around my home.

Have the best day and take care !

  3. I do want to run a 10k this year, but don't think I'll be able to by march. I've never run further than 8km. I know 10 is only 2 more, but I've only done 8 once! I'm hoping the weather cools off a little soon as I am really struggling with training/running in the heat.

    1. Oh my friend - you should have the confidence in yourself that you have in everyone else !!!! You so have enough time between now and 24 March to train for a 10km run - there is a 5km run if you are interested !!!
