Pacing practice

So my month long recovery from HK marathon has finally come to an end. Lazy cannot be lazy any more. I have been doing some light running here and there, but nothing specific. I have signed up for a pacing gig in 26 days’ time so I better get training. I thought – I needed some motivation to keep training, but I am not ready to race for another PB yet. How about some rabbit pacing magic?

Here’s the map of the course:



I will be pacing 2 hours (120 minutes) at the Canberra Half Marathon on 13 April 2014 (5:38min/km) (banking in one minute). It will be fun running with a flag up my ass.

Dragon's Back hike

On the final day of my Hong Kong stay, a friend treated me with a hike to Dragon's Back. It is a medium grade hike (8.5km) with a view of the ocean and mega mansions at Po O. 





The track finished at Big Wave bay. There are lots of SUPs and surfboards for hire if you want to have a go. It was too cold and we were happier sipping our coconut juice and tea and eating potato wedges.


This concludes the HK leg of my adventure. Until next time :)
