Hydrating and trying to stay calm and not freak out over the fact that I am RUNNING A MARATHON TOMORROW. As a training run. *Gulp.*


Best of luck to everybody running in the SMH Half tomorrow! Wish I could be there with you. Instead I’ll be running my own race: a 42.2K marathon training run around Iron Cove and Centennial Park. I’m scared, but I know that I can do it – and so can you! May all of us have good, safe runs and come back to DM with great stories to tell…


Up at 5:20am. Dressed, now having breakfast. And then I’m running a marathon. Still freaking out. About 4 hrs sleep. Pure adrenaline.


Back at the house, slightly more than halfway around. Refuelled and ready to go. Feet hurt, but I CAN DO IT. Less than 20km to go.

This site features content going all the way back to 2000. The posts you’ll read reflect my views and writing style at the time. While I have gone back to clean up a few of them, I think it’s important not to sanitise too much. This site is a record of who I am and how I’ve grown. Any blog post written years ago may not reflect who I am today, nor how I would write about the same topic today.
