Well this morning I did my first fun run. Up at 5:00am for a 7:45am start (1hours drive from home). Fund raising for Breast Cancer Research a Mother's Day Classic run along the banks of Brisbane on a beautiful cold then warm autumn morning. I first started running back in Jan this year, never really expecting that I could run further than the second lamppost but here I was ready to run 8 klm's... And so I did and got a PB in the first 5k - bonus! Not only that, put my number in the free raffle and won a gift pack worth $300! Excellent outcome all round, life begins at 61 I tell you when you take up running!!

Up at 5am? You started running in January and now running 8K and achieving this kind of splits? You are simply amazing!

Great stuff.
You did a run like that, won the raffle and are off to Bali? Lucky b*@#@*!!
I am sure you are aware but Bali is hideously humid. Take it easy and all the best.
