Journey to Boston...Excited for a new event!

Almost another week done, with just one more run/walk of 5 kilometers to get my 25 kilometers to make my goal distance for the week done. After today's run with shin splints (sore shins) it wasn't my most awesome moment, but did enjoy being out in the sunshine and with another 200 people running parkrun.

I got home with my well needed coffee, and downloaded my data onto Strava, to analyse and take a little bit of time on Facebook before going to work. I came across a post from a friend about an awesome weekend in Busselton (South of Perth), one of my favorite places ever, it is a half marathon on the Saturday and then the Busselton Jetty Swim (3.6km solo) on Sunday. Totally Excited!!!

Busselton Jetty 1.9km out to the end!

So now I am super excited to be doing these events, and being in such an awesome town. So now I sit back and workout my training schedule for the coming summer, with a balance of swimming, the gym and running. I am very lucky to have family and friends that are great support when I do these kind of events, to which I am very grateful. These are the people who put up with my good moods, and bad moods. My frustrations and my moments of awesomeness. 

I feel now that I have events in the middle of my time before my first marathon, will be a great way to stay focused on my training and my nutrition, because if that goes pear shape I won't reach my goals. 

Have a great weekend everyone... I leave you tonight with...
