Bridge to Brisbane

Dear Blog,

On the weekend I ran Bridge to Brisbane with my family. This is a 10km run starting from the new gateway bridge to the RNA showgrounds.

Background:
Throughout primary and high school I enjoyed cross-country and ran at GPS but I was never on the top level because I hated the early mornings.

This year:
I did limited training for B2B this year and was aiming for under 60 min. My mum told me I was crazy. I started the race at 6:10am in an excellent weather B2B and finished 52min later. I really enjoyed the run and have decided I would see it as a life achievement if I run a marathon by the time I'm 30, without walking. Next year I plan to run a half marathon in less than 5min/km - or less than 1:45.00.
