Was awesome to meet another 9 Miler, Kevin Lieschke, at the Geelong Half Marathon this morning. Wet, cold, and muddy but lots of fun!
All my training lately has been at MHR so tried to stick close to that. Stopped looking at the watch at 16k and just went as hard as I could to the finish from there. Took one gel for a bit of a booster at approx 8km but didn’t really need it so didn’t take any more. Just water at the aid stations and plenty left to finish strong.
Might not get to a Marathon this year but have another Half planned for September so might do a 12 week training block at HMHR before that for a bit of fun.
Happy Running everyone and good luck to Marlies and anyone else doing Boston!
Cheers Lon
