RUN MELBOURNE
Afternoon my Pink friends :)
So, yesterday it was Run Melbourne & of course it was a chance for me to grab another medal so I was registered & even though, due to road works, the course was changed from 5km to 6km, I was there ready to go from early morning.
I wanted to watch my son finish the 1/2 Marathon, he was pacing one of our parkrun friends who was doing her first 1/2, her aim was to get sub 2hours 20minutes, they crossed the finish line looking not like they had just run 21km but like they had just been for a stroll in the park.
Myself, I ran the entire 6km, ya, go me!! I kept hearing my son say Mum, its mind over matter, there is no reason to walk, you dont hurt, you aren't out of breath... That was my longest run so far, very happy & now looking to increase slowly to be able to do a 10km event.
&... to top off a really good day, I met Hamish Blake who was also competing.....
For your boredom lol, I attach my favorite photos of the day.
