Big Top


Week 7 of 15


30km | 3:15:31 | grass


I've been running the odd long run on the grass of late and thought that if I was going to bump up the k's to three oh this week, then it best be on the soft stuff.


So basically I just ran round and round and round Centennial Park. Which I found a total bore !


To make it worse the Park was in disarray because of the Good Vibrations Festival being held today/tonight. Kanye West is headlining apparently. Lots of white tents, high fences and gorillas with walkie talkies.


I found the last few kms a struggle. I just wanted to go home. These are the demons that talk to you and make running only a few hundred meters from home for 3 hours so hard. Anyway it's over, in the bank and I have no serious niggles. All good.

To dull the boredom you could have invited one of the gorillas to join you for a lap ;)

That's a good one in the bank Gronk. Nice work with the hill reps too.

Well done. It will interesting to see the difference in impact on the body after a long run on grass as opposed to the bitumen & concrete.

Ahhh the demons... good on you for ignoring them. Good to have a 30 k'er under your belt.
