  • Pat,

    I've been involved in numerous PCRG/Gold Coast Airport Marathon campaigns. The day itself is always exciting given it's the "finale". The day PCRG members call on their banked energy, both physical and psychological. I've often found myself alone (reflecting) in the marquee after everyone has left, savouring the mornings memories.

    What I do find equally rewarding is the final month or so prior. Rather than take this gradual build of excitement for granted I believe we should also savour these final weeks and realise that being motivated by a challenge is something to be proud of: "WE'RE LIVING"! The Beatles sang about how "Money can't buy me love", well: Money can't buy the desire to achieve your goal at the coast either, but the priceless fire in your belly will. Relish in the fact you've set yourself a goal and stay true over the next 5.5 weeks.

    IT'S TIME TO LOCK IN YOUR EVENT

    PCRG/Gold Coast 2011 Team Entry will close this Friday

    Yes it will soon be colder in the mornings and daylight will take longer to appear. Are you going to let life pass you by and stay in your comfy bed OR are you going to join your friends at PCRG? It will be your choice and the consequence of this choice will either power you OR bug you.

    NO BUGS! I'll be seeing YOU again this week!

    Cheers

    Pat

    PCRG Silver Sponsor: Crust Gourmet Pizza Bar

    Pizza shouldn't leave you feeling greasy and ashamed. It should be a delicious way to eat when life's too busy or you simply just fancy your favourite. It used to be that you had to choose between a quality pizza or home delivery. Not any more.

    At Crust we bring restaurant quality gourmet pizzas, piping hot to your door. Join the legions of Crust fans and sign up to enjoy the guilt-free pleasure of the best home delivered pizza you've ever eaten. Really.

    Thank you Crust Gourmet Pizza Bar for being a PCRG sponsor!

    The Ship Inn has been PCRG's home since inception and we're forever grateful.

    Thanks heaps John!

    Hilly Socks - second to none!

    I met Ron Hill pre 1986 London Marathon - Ron is a true legend! This meeting encouraged me to try "Hilly Socks" some 25 years later. I'm particularly impressed with the Mono Skins and can honestly say they're the best fitting sock I've ever worn.

    Hilly Socks are professionally made with comfort second to none!
