Post Dubbo marathon run

After no running for 2 days and feeling pretty good in the legs I set off for what was going to be an easy run of about 17km. I ended up running just under 19km in 1hr30min.

Dubbo Marathon

Darna and myself headed out to Dubbo for the marathon. Had a great race. Plan was to just run around 5min pace and finish in a bit under 3hrs30min and not have beat up legs. Instead I ended up finishing in 3hrs17min05sec and 3rd male and 4th overall. 

Weather was absolutely perfect!

I actually felt really comfortable and kept my km's around 4:35-4:45 until the last few km's.

Other than loosing skin on one of my toes that caused quite a bit of discomfort in the last 3km my body felt awesome the whole way.

To make things even better Darna ended up with 3rd female and we both took home $300 each for prize money!

All in all a great weekend 

The Entrance Parkrun

 Went a bit harder than planned but felt great and relaxed so kinda just went with it. Ran 3km as a warmup then planned on running around 4:30 pace for the parkrun. Ran the 1st km in 4:14 & it really felt quite easy so the next few km,so we're around 4:06-4:07 & the last km was 3:47. Came 5th and 1st in my age.

Total km's were 10km around 4:30 pace.

Now off to Dubbo for the marathon tomorrow
