On Sunday 10 April, I ran in the 19k event as part of the Mt Meet Classic. I have moved out to Daybook late last year so thought I had better run my ‘local’ race. It was a tough race, with a lot more walking that I had anticipated. The first 10k was enjoyable, even though it was up and down. But the final 9k felt like a continuous climb to the finish, with the sun blaring down on us.
One of my running buddies ran the 44k – her first marathon, first ultra-marathon and first trail race all in one. It was great to see her out on the course and then cheer her across the finish line.
Now time to consult the race calendar and work out whats next…….
