Marcus Randall: September 2012
http://marcus-randall.blogspot.com/2012_09_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 4 September 2012. The season is nigh. With a little over two weeks until my first race. Of the season, my training has been a little patchy although I still have been ticking most of the boxes. I had an ok race and wasn't feeling 100% although I crossed the line in a time of 35min 22sec for a 13sec PB and 30th overall. Matt finished 8th overall in a time of 32min 30sec and was on pace with the lead pack until the 7km mark where he said they got away from him. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). I have s...

Marcus Randall: About
http://marcus-randall.blogspot.com/p/about.html
I have set up this blog to allow my friends and family to follow my racing and training endeavours. I began competing in Triathlons in 2008 following returning from Afghanistan with the Australian Army and undergoing a shoulder reconstruction. I had read a few triathlon magazines and thought that it would be fun to have a crack. In 2009, I was awarded the Conspicuous Service Medal during the Queens Birthday honours.

Marcus Randall: The off season
http://marcus-randall.blogspot.com/2013/10/the-off-season.html
Tuesday, 22 October 2013. Well it has been such a long time since I have updated this so I thought I write what I have been up to over the off season prior to some races that I have raced at the start of the season. I had plenty of support from family and friends and used this set back as even more motivation to get back into it. I had surgery on Thursday and the following Tuesday I was back on the wind trainer ticking the legs over. Withing a week I was able to get some solid riding done allbeit...6 wee...

Marcus Randall: October 2012
http://marcus-randall.blogspot.com/2012_10_01_archive.html
Sunday, 14 October 2012. Noosa - 3 weeks out. Well, as the title suggests, Noosa Tri is only 3 weeks away and Hervey Bay 100 is only 6 weeks away. I have been able to string some very solid weeks together over the past three weeks. At times, I was going to some sessions very tired, however, once the session got going, it was easier to finish than to pull the pin. So from here, it is another two weeks of solid speed sessions leading into Noosa prior to a taper and have a good crack at Noosa. A big thanks ...

Marcus Randall: June 2012
http://marcus-randall.blogspot.com/2012_06_01_archive.html
Sunday, 10 June 2012. Ironman Cairns - The Postmoretem. When signing up for this race three months ago, I knew it was going to be a tough ask as it was only allowing me 4 weeks to try and back up after competing in Ironman Australia. However, with the addage that this was now an Ironman race and the fact that I had family in Cairns that I could catch up with whilst there, it was a race that I could not go past. I positioned myself on the front row right next to the right hand swim bouy. As the gun so...

Marcus Randall: Moreton Bay Olympic Distance
http://marcus-randall.blogspot.com/2013/10/moreton-bay-olympic-distance.html
Wednesday, 23 October 2013. Moreton Bay Olympic Distance. We were met with perfect conditions which can be very hit and miss at Redcliffe as the bay face to the South East and four out of five days will see a solid south easterly wind blowing. The sun was out and there was barely a breath of wind or a ripple on the ocean for the race. I was stoked with my first race of the season, one that I had only done as a spur of the moment but felt quite solid with. My overall time was 2hr 3mins. 38:25, 15th overall.
