It's been a while since I posted - but what better way to make a come back. At the end of last round it was a really busy time- I went to Cairns for work on the last day. I've been going really strong in Round 3 2012 and lost 7KG in 3 weeks :)
Yesterday i entered my VERY FIRST fun run! 4KM over the Sydney Harbour bridge. Just entering was a scary thing for me to do - I was determined to enter months ago, started training and waking 2-3Km each lunch time at work - but i never entered because of fear! With a little help from the 12 WBT clan i decided to enter the day before, just in the nick of time.
I was so nervous- but as soon as we got to Bradfield park the nerves eased a bit, and then came back and powered me off to a great start! It was really emotional jogging out the bridge.. i had a bit of a tear- i really can't believe that in 4 short months of my new lifestyle here i am running over the Harbour bridge... SO weird, and I'm just loving it- and I'm so excited to see what the next few months brings me :)
I beat My PB split/lap times. 1km in 8:44 min / 2km in 9:00 min / 3km in 9:07 min. Making my 4km in 35:22.
I'm so proud of Bec & I, I could burst, and i can't wait to enter next year-and maybe do the 10KM .
