City 2 Surf

Well I know it's amazing, but I ran the City to Surf on the weekend. Why amazing you ask? Because of my lack of running mojo and very limited training recently.

The only reason I ran was because I had convinced my uncle to enter with me. He runs for fitness but hates it, and wanted to do the C2S so he actually got something out of his running. His longest runs to date had been about 8km, so he did really well.

We ran together the whole way, I did it pretty comfortably and probably could have gone a bit faster, but really I wasn't out there for a fast run. Finish time was 96 minutes something. Actually that's not bad. My last C2S was 2 years ago - I had trained for it and did 99 minutes.

Whilst I enjoyed the run, I don't know whether it's going to be enough to get that mojo back. I'm thinking about the Central Coast Half in December but that's a while away. At the moment a big problem is fitting anything else in around work.

OK I'll stop whinging now.

I saw the C2S on telly up here, it looked like a really fun race!! Maybe I'll try and come down for it next year - maybe we'll both have our mojo back by then!
