Almost halfway there...
Thankyou to a great team of friends and family, the Gloucester Tri Mountain Man squeezed around 10 kms outa me this weekend just past! Some pre-race chocolate and post-race bacon and egg sandwich ensured my preparation and recovery were sorted. Having never run in that kind of heat and humidity... am relieved that the event I'm training for happens to be by the seaside- here's hoping that guarantees a breeze at the very least.
I'm training with Can Too for the Central Coast (Half ) Marathon!
Streuth!!! I've committed to training for a half marathon with Can Too. Can Too is a health promotion organisation that inspires people to tackle physical challenges while raising funds for Cancer prevention.
"Difficult roads often lead to beautiful destinations"
My goal... to keep my feet rolling over 21kms of prime beach frontage and to do it in a quasi-sensible time without doing in a hip or knee or ankle (or necessary organ).
The plan is to diligently apply myself to a rigorous training program- that's where I've enlisted some helpful coaching from Can Too so I can tackle this event with confidence! (and injury free!) In return for their support, I am raising some incredibly valuable funds to support innovation in the prevention, care and management of cancer. This year, Can Too is funding 14 early career researchers through Cure Cancer Australia. That's 14 great brains (even greater than mine) focused on tackling the many and varied shapes and forms of this sneaky persistant and all too common condition we know as cancer.
Thank you for supporting me to support a great cause!
Proud of you N
