Tim Buskens

Sydney 21km SMH Half Marathon 2017

Week 5 down... 9 to go. Thanks to all of my sponsors - half way to my target

Hey team, tough training this week as we hit double figures in our long run, all in torential rain. The legs felt those extra couple of kg's of water logged shoes, especially on the hills as we came back out of the National Park. 

Thanks again to everyone that has sponsored me so far, it is greatly appreciated.

Have a great week.. Tim

Week 4 down.... 10 to go!!

Hey Team, great week of training!! We were joined by Annie for our long run on Saturday.

Did the same 8km course as last week, but with a focus on negative splits (coming home faster than setting out). This made a huge difference and managed to reduce last weeks time by 2 mins and averaged 5.11 min km's. 

Have a great week of training

Week 3 down.... 11 to go

Hey Team, week 3 was one wet week but we were lucky to miss the rain in both of our training session. The heavy rain started just after both training sessions!!

It was a great run on Saturday hitting the pavement for 8km and even managed to do sub 5.30 min km's. 

Thanks to those that have sponsoured me so far.... still some more to go to hit my target.

Have a great week

Week 2 down.... 12 to go

Missed training on Saturday, managing to avoid the wet weather!! Made up for it today though with an 11km run.... feeling it tonight!!

I'm training with Can Too for the Sydney Morning Herald Half Marathon!

I am training for an event with Can Too, a health promotion organisation that engages and inspires individuals and the community to achieve personal health, wellbeing and altruistic goals.
 
Beginners and experienced athletes alike are given professional coaching as part of a team to run or swim in endurance events- including 10km, half-marathon and marathon runs; as well as ocean swims and triathlons.
 
In return, I am raising valuable funds that go towards innovation in the prevention, care and control of cancer. In 2016, our Can Too community has supported 12 early career researchers through Cure Cancer Australia and Cancer Council NSW.

Thank you for supporting me!
 
‘It’s so much fun and I can’t believe I’m going to achieve this goal that I never thought possible. A great program and team support is making it possible. You Can Too!’

Thank you to my Sponsors
