D-Day minus 1.

Well I apologise for letting the week pass without a post since Monday but we haven’t really done too much to be honest. We have had a couple of light jogs around the streets and yesterday we ran around Anderson Park for 40mins or so stopping regularly to stretch off. On Wednesday I went and saw Mark Foote and had a leg rub, now as nice as that may sound it certainly was anything but. I thought my stretching regime of the past few months would have been of benefit but not so, Mark hammered me and I was reduced to a quivering wreck. I need to do a lot more work but the silver lining is that I am doing the right thing with the foam roll I have but I just need to get a bit harder, sorry Mark will do better next time.

Today is about getting everything ready for the morning and resting up. I have a half day booked at work and I am going to have a nana nap this arvo then catch up with the kids at swimming, before registering and then the race briefing at the Domain at 6pm. We have “running pasta” for dinner then I am going to hit the scratcher early. We are trying not to over complicate things and keeping it simple, good pace, leppins every hour, banana at transition and just keep moving.

Chris dropped off the running shirt last night we are in Skins this year and I personally think they look great, we have had them printed up with Make a Wish, Ronald McDonald and Child Cancer logos and have Fern Ridge across the back, looking smart boys, a little poofy maybe but smart.

Well thats it folks will catch you after the race with a few pictures as well.
