Running from 2002 to 2006, I acheived my long term goal of a sub 4 min per k paced marathon at Gold Coast, and then broke down with osteitis pubis later that year, which was later traced to a back injury that looks to have ended my road running career. After a change of cities, I got suckered into doing the Kokoda Challenge, and now it would seem I'm turning...to the Dark Side...
After a nap this afternoon managed to talk myself into heading out into mild, but humid conditions for a relaxed half hour for a bit over 6km. Felt pretty decent, with the kink in the right hip better than it was this morning. Same deal, down the sandy gravel path between UQ and the Brisbane River.

A broken down road runner in his late 30's Vat is now moving to trail running, and aiming for ultra events. Hopefully he won't keep falling over... PB's:5k-17:27,10k-36:28 HM-1:19:16,M-2:48:04

WHAT!!
Vat's in town and didn't run with us? Very disappointed.
I love that gravel path along the uni and the river. Feels good and is a great surface to start off a long run.
Hope you are enjoying our wonderful weather and that someone out there is showing you our fabulous queenslander hospitality.
Yeah, sorry about that. Tight schedule, so I really didn't know when I could fit runs in. Mate, you'll be sick of the sight of me in a few year's time, so be grateful!
