Short Long

Went up the road for my 10ks this afternoon - I had forgotten how much nicer it is up there (apart from the hoons on dirt bikes, one even did a wheelie as he went past!). Ten kilometres feels so good (compared to eighteen which is what I have been doing) and flew by in 64.04 including getting up the other side of KH in under 8 minutes (just!).

Feeling nervous about next Sunday but I think it is more to do with the organisational aspects than the actual run itself (that will come later). I managed to find some accommodation after a frustrating hour on the net this morning. It seems that families do not stay in inner Sydney as every place had double, twin or single rooms. The one I booked said a queen bed and a roll away on request but in the photos there was a lounge so I figure it'll all work out. It will be really nice to stay in that part of town as I really only know a few areas in Sydney.

Goals for the race:
a) Under 2 hours
b) Under 2 hours, 3 minutes and 35 (my PB!)
c) A respectable time and just enjoy myself

No matter what time I get I know that it will be a huge thrill to run over the Harbour Bridge and to the Opera House. I will be enjoying the sites and soaking up the atmosphere.
