Count down to lift off....
Less that two weeks till race day and I've done pretty much all that Hal asked of me and some.
I quit my job. I bought a great running gadget (Polar RS200SD). I have grown a Forrest Gump beard.... and oh yeah I've done a lot of running. Have I done enough? That is the question.
Over the last 5 weeks I've averaged 60km's a week and never shirked the long run on the weekend so I'm in okay shape. My training buddy has had the flu for the last two weeks which has thrown his preparation down the crapper, but hopefully he'll still make it to the start line with me.
Ideally I would have liked to train a little faster and be a few kg's lighter (weighing in at 76kg) but as I said to my girlfriend the other day..... "I just like my milk and cookies" too much.
