me running…
First marathon in 2016. Still not ready or at least that how I feel. But I had to try. Try myself. And besides that there was AGM after the run. So, I was on the road again, driving towards Lilliput to see my running friends and to run with them. Lilliput is not even a hour drive so early morning and into the car. Morning was actually grand, not too cold and it wasn’t raining…
End of January. Time to get into the car and head straight to Lilliput again for marathon. This time at least I knew where to go. This time unfortunately My Wife wasn’t with me. Sometimes biggest supporter need to get rest as well. But wasn’t traveling alone. Fellow runner – Tara – was looking for lift to Lilliput. Was nice to have company when driving but as well nice to meet closer another marathon runner. To talk about ideas which go throught your head when you are on the 1st, 6th, 13th, 21st and the last mile. And gues what? It seems that it not just me or Mr Murakami who thinks that from about mile 20 supporters should watch out for you. You could punch them if you really tired 😉 Anyway, that just prooved that I’m not strange, at least too strange.
...hmmm. Let me see: - sleeves, - performance long sleeve shirt, - buffs, - pins.
That's it. I think. My bad memory is the only think which was not cool about marathon event in Lilliput. Rest was brilliant. Vincent Guthrie and whole gang put together really great race. Run took place in the near Lilliput Adventure Centre. Small lap on the beginning and after that 4 bigger ones. Route flat but some parts rough and after the day before and morning rain that wasn't too easy to run. At the end of the race you could see that calves of each runner were very, very mucky but that was the whole fun...
