Elaines -Comrades Ultra Marathon 2009 by Elainec

Having a rest week this week, haven't run a even been to the gym. Going to gym tomorrow morning.

Thanks for the support Jacqui and kim, you will get there Kim, set yourself smaller goals you'll be amzed at how quickly you will improve.

My legs were stiff until Wednesday after Rhodes, meant to give you the website www.rhodesrun.net.za .

I gave the girls the website for sani stagger, we found out that the entries are also limited and was filling up fast so Belinda in her wisdom entered and we all followed suite, Sam has organised the accomodation so we are fixed up. Sani stagger is a 42k trail race up a mountain pass in the Drakensburg Natal to the otherside of the Lesotho border that we were at on the Rhodes race, that was Eastern Cape side. It is 21km up run and then 21k back down. You can enter just one of the 21's up or down but we are not made of that weak stuff and will do both.....  

Next week is Walk the talk, a 15km charity race in Johannesburg, 702 radio station organise the event it is the biggest walking event held in SA, looking forward to that Sam, Maureen, Jacqui and I are doing the 15k Belinda is doing the 30k. Then we are off for breakfast after it. Tomorrow we are all doing lunch... another one of those rowdy wine drinking sessions.....
