Decisions
The discovery of facebook lead to the absence of blogging for more than half a year.
Ran 3 races this year the Malakoff 12km, GE30k and Orange run. I was the 3rd last Veteran runner to finish 30kms clocking a time of 4:16. The Orange run route was increased to 11kms, finishing 72mins. These statistic show I have slowed down considerably by 10% over the last 2 years. I have to admit I lack discipline and perseverance in training prefering more to hike during weekends.
However, I still enjoy participating races as long as I do not risk injury, health complications or road dangers when the traffic control is withdrawn.
The SCKL Marathon is around the corner and the facts say I am ill prepared. I have never skipped or dnf a race. This could be my first.
