Pat, Do you need help preparing for the 10k/Half Marathon or Marathon at the 2006 Gold Coast Airport Marathon on July 2? The sooner you start your preparation the better. I have a Special Gold Coast 2006 online coaching offer available. Full details here along with a brief motivational article. If you are currently finding it difficult to fully commit to a lengthy preparation for Gold Coast, the following words may help: The desire to achieve a goal is meaningless without a desire to prepare. Visualising yourself achieving a goal will help keep you motivated. Your goal may be to break two hours in the half marathon, 50 minutes in the 10k or possibly you will be over the moon if you complete 42.2 km. Lock in an imaginary training partner. When you are searching for the desire to go for a run visualise your imaginary training partner already out running. Will you take the easy option and hit the snooze button or will you make the most of another opportunity? Realise that you will be getting that little bit stronger following every (opportunity) training run. If you have run at the Coast before I am sure you will be back. If you have never had the pleasure I can assure you that you will not be dissapointed. Cheers
Pat Carroll
