City to surf 2012

Ok this post maybe a month or so late, but a lot has happened since then. I am still posting it becuase I just want to add this little milestone in.

The last Sunday of August, is known as City to Surf day. Thousands and thousands of people participate in the run. I am not sure if it is a fun run but some people dress up ( I saw a bear, darth vader and guys in skivys) and some take it really seriously. 

For me, it was a personal challange thing. My goal earlier this year was to run 5kms but I decided to do 12kms instead. It was not an easy task for me as I was not 100% fit and mentally not prepared. But I did have my running buddy, May with me and she pushed me through the finish line.  

 My aim was to run it in under 90 minutes but at the last 4kms, the blisters at the bottom of my feet were unbareable so I did it in 2 hours instead. I was not too happy with the run but I told myself that at least I finished it and I ran most of the way. Next year, I plan to do it in under 100 minutes. :*)
