As I look back I can hardly believe my year. I have run all over this great land of ours and for the first time since I took up running again five years ago I finally ran in my first International event. I was invited to the Queenstown Marathon as an Ambassador. To review and [...]
Flat, fast and festive is how the Scotiabank Toronto Waterfront Marathon is described. We relocated to Toronto in February of this year from Brisbane and I was keen for the challenge of another marathon and to experience one on our new home soil. After running the incredibly scenic Great Ocean Road marathon in Victoria last [...]
Everyone loves a getaway. Time away to de-stress from all of life's pressures. But what if you could have a RUNAWAY, combining your holiday with your love of running in an amazing location? That is exactly what Runaway Barossa Marathon was all about. Runaway Barossa is just one of the amazing events in the Runaway Marathon Series [...]
I haven't really raced a distance road race since Canberra marathon in April so I came to Berlin with an open mind about race day. Berlin Marathon 2017 hosted 44,000 runners from 120 countries. Whilst the Germans are known for their efficiency, the magnitude of the event combined with voting in the German Federal [...]
Let’s start from the beginning: I’ve been running less than a year. It’s going to be a year on 26 August, 2017 to be precise. All I can say is that it has been an amazing year and the best decision to put running shoes on and just walk out of the door on one [...]
I’ve never been what I would consider a real runner, so sitting here writing a race recap after completing my second marathon is still quite surreal. In high school you would only ever find me participating in the 100m run on sports day because that was compulsory for everyone to do. Even then I always [...]
Girls weekend away .. Yes! Days off from house work.. Yes! Run for chocolate ..YES!! A group of us from Penrith, NSW decided on a weekend away to Hobart for the Cadbury Marathon 2017. Who could resist when running and chocolate was to be involved ! Some made it into a mini holiday , some [...]
I have wanted to run the New York City Marathon before I really even started running. It has been a bucket list item since University and I have entered the ballot many times to no avail. In 2013 I started training for New York only to find out I was pregnant with our third [...]
Can you do it twice? It was a dare. The question posed by the Lamington Eco Challenge taunted me. Could I do a 42km trail run twice in two days? Sure, there were 8km and 21km options, but I am too stubborn – some might say foolish! – to not throw myself at a challenge [...]
The Sunshine Coast Marathon had it all, pony rides, jumping castles, face painting, amazing scenery, the RMA spirit, the big race atmosphere and a great course. Lining up for my 20th half marathon I never imagined when I started running 3 years ago I would be writing this race recap. My journey has [...]
The time has come to focus on the marathon again… My relationship with the marathon really started for me in 2014, when my husband and I decided to run our first. It was a special training process together and a goal we conquered together, while raising over $5000 for the Royal Women and Children [...]
I started running in January last year when my daughter was 5 months old. I’d had gestational diabetes during pregnancy and was warned to stay active if I didn’t want to end up with Type 2. Inspired by two of my sisters, I decided to try running. It was ideal as I could literally start [...]
On Sunday 10 April 2016, I completed my third marathon. I was not going to run the marathon this year, after running my first marathon one year ago (Canberra), as well as the Melbourne Marathon in Oct 15. I was not sure if I would run ‘a full’ again, not because I did not enjoy [...]
