It's been a while

Time sure flies. Have intended to update this blog but I didn't realise it has been quite that long.

I am still running (just haven't been blogging) and I have managed to stay injury free by not increasing my distances too radically.

I have decided that for the time being I am going to stick to 12ks longest run. This seems to be a good distance for me. I can run it without getting too fatigued, which is when I lose form and my niggles start to get worse.

So much for those thoughts of entering a marathon that I entertained for a while last year. I have realised that I enjoy running too much and don't enjoy walking around with sore knees and a sore back the rest of the time. So if I can keep running (and enjoying those runs ) then that is the most important thing.

I will probably enter the 10k run at the Macleay River Marathon in June. J is going to do it again and I am hoping that he might push me to a PB. I have only run a 10k race once and my time was 54.49 (that was 3 years ago). J (who was 10 at the time) ran it last year in 49.50.
