Good job!

Next step is the '5 minute mile'.

I'm not actually training speed - I'm training for the Comrades Marathon next year - 18th June - Pietermaritzburg to Durdan (~87km)

So actually the 5 minute mile isn't going to happen The 4hour Marathon might.

Ah...

So basically William Cairns the Timex vice William Cairns the human bullet train, huh? [/pascal]

Last weekend (13th/14th) I went down into the Southern Free State to do the Sterling Light Lager 35km Adventure race.

I enjoyed it so much that I've written a whole report on the event. You can find the PDF version of the report (approx 700kb) here:

That's great news Cairnswm keep at it. My Cross Country(5K) season just ended over here, so I'm taking some time off running, and getting back to coding for a bit.

I havn't updated here for a while

I started running on January 9th. So far I have done
3 10km races: 53:26; 66:01; and 49:31 (The middle one was with friends)
2 21.1km races: 1:57; 1:43
2 16km races: ?; 1:22
and 4 adventure races. (Time here is meaningless) - the longest was 60kms and took 5:35.

I was going to do a 21 on the coming weekend but its been cancelled. I'll probably do a 27 or 30km training run instead. (This weekend I did 25km in 2:16).

I'm running about 60kms per week at the moment. And need to incrase that by about 20kms each month until January. Where I'll get the time to run 120kms a week I dont know but thats the goal at the moment.

My first 32km run (current goal) will be on November 26. I'm hoping to do it in 2:40 but under 2:50 I'll be happy.
My first 42.2km Marathon will be late January early February.

2 16km races: ?; 1:22
1 32km race: 2:49:28
