Pat,
The Melbourne Marathon will take place on Sunday
and if you are running I sincerely wish you all the
best. Formerly know as the ‘Big M’ Marathon, which
attracted the likes of Bill Rodgers to our shores, the
Melbourne Marathon has definitely stood the test of
time.
After the last runner crosses the line on Sunday your
next major stop, Marathon wise, will be the Canberra
Marathon on the 9th of April 2006. The Canberra
Marathon will be turning 30 and with the best part of
6 months to prepare you may wish to pencil the date
into your diary now.
The next few summer months can best be put to
good use by reducing your running volume and
working on your speed.
I have written a brief article ‘running free’ which may
help get you kick started.
Cheers
Pat
