Pictures from rhodes trail Run July 2008

Belinda and I

Me in snow en-route

Jaqui put all of our 50k Rhodes trail race pictures on a CD for us, How nice. The first one is of Belinda and I en-route the second of me in the snow. That race was just fantastic, 50km of sheer hell across mountains snow ice rocks rivers and shrubs, but it was wonderful, seeing the pics reminded me of how gruelling it actually was.

Training is back on track, ran a 8km at Time trial on tuesday with Belinda, Sam and Maureen. Wednesday just Belinda and I ran another 8km around the TT route. last night I gymed and worked my arse off on the spinning bike as well as doing some stomach arms and leg machines. Tomorrow is the Spar Ladies race I'm doing the 10k Amy the 5k.

I want to run a 42km in November to qualify for Two Oceans next year, it will take the pressure off training to a 42 early in new year, Two Oceans is April easter weekend I've never done it the only year I managed to have a free Easter to go I had a stress fracture so ended up as a spectator....  which was far more fun as I had a cooler box with wine in and sat in the sun watching the runners slog up hill....

Have a great weekend will try and get out in the sun to do something about these white legs.....

Cheers

  • kizzi10000 'Great pics! Don't see snow like that round here any more (very south of england). Used to get quite a bit when I was a kid. Love the thought of sitting there with a cooler of wine watching the others work lol' added 30th Aug 2008
