Monday, January 26, 2009. Canterbury 2009 Australia Day 5.5km fun run. This has to be one of the nicest community runs in Sydney. Organised by Canterbury Council. Once again the event was free to enter! I don't know quite how Canterbury Council manages this - especially as they provide a generous show bag and icy cold drinks after the run. But all power to them - it's such a good way to encourage people to take part, enjoy some running, and discover what the Cooks River parklands have to offer. After the...

Tuesday, October 6, 2009. You can't always get what you want. My big goal for this year was to undertake the Sri Chinmoy Peace Triathlon. For the first time. But my preparation for the event has been less than ideal. in fact, dismal. Sums it up fairly well. Ever since a bout of flu earlier this year, I don't seem to have been able to string more than a couple of weeks together before falling prey to some bug or other. None of them serious, just unpleasant enough to interrupt training. Only a very small f...

Tuesday, December 20, 2011. And then, a year or so later. Mmm I see that my previous blog post. Has me preparing for the Sydney Marathon, um, last year. It's just as well I don't write this for money - the family would be living in a cardboard box by now. Here are a few highlights from the last year and a bit. Sydney Marathon, September 19, 2010. After my early exit from this race in 2008. Coastal Classic trail run, September 25, 2010. This was the inaugural running of the Coastal Classic. The sense of a...

Monday, March 2, 2009. Video comparison of running with and without shoes. A nice comparison (though you have to bear with the sound). I found about this via Barefoot Ted. Links to this post.

See Slowmo Run: August 2010

Tuesday, August 3, 2010. Super athletes of the Sierra Madre. I found this video of the Copper Canyon ultra-marathon via Caballo Blanco's web pages. It has beautiful scenery, images of the local people and (of course) lots of huaraches. It also has one of the most wonderful evocations of running as sharing, friendship and simple joyfulness that I've found anywhere. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

See Slowmo Run: June 2010
http://see-slowmo-run.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html
Monday, June 28, 2010. Getting faster despite my best efforts. I think it's already safe to say that this has been my best running year so far in terms of actually feeling. Like a runner. I'm still slow but now I'm slow and comfy rather than slow and gasping for breath. Sometimes I've even caught myself enjoying running up a hill. Topic of conversation is one's Personal Best Time and the endless quest to lower it, but I've never felt much affinity with this. I've always been more interested in how mu...

See Slowmo Run: 2008 Sydney Marathon
http://see-slowmo-run.blogspot.com/2008/09/2008-sydney-marathon.html
Tuesday, September 23, 2008. After all the training, the wondering and the worrying, the day had finally arrived. All of the nervousness that I'd felt the evening before had subsided and I was really looking forward to the race. I wandered over to the starting area and was pleased to see that they'd signposted my end of the field (the back) with snail signs! I strolled down the road a little, taking in the water view and feeling relaxed. A bag with my number 5976. Yes! No it was 5967. aaaarrrgghhh! Final...

Monday, February 15, 2010. And here is the result. Well, it seems that I land with a mid-foot strike. This came as quite a surprise. When I'm running, I feel like I'm landing towards the front of my foot. But the camera doesn't lie and it could be that my impressions were influenced more by what I thought I should. Be doing rather than by what I actually was. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Barefoot and funny footwear runners. Barefoot Ken Bob - the guru. Runbare - barefoot ultra-runner.
