yesterday was very reasuring hike. alan, brad and myself did 29km from syd duncan park to the veledrone (finish line). we did it in 6 hours (two small breaks as well). the good things, my feet coped well, didnt feel unwell like the two weeks, felt stronger and in a positive attitude that we might just do this.
we didnt see anyone on the track until the veledrone and the team was only 10mins ahead of us and had done the same route, so we were travelling the same as others which is encouraging. i think the thing that the guys looked forward to was having a subway, in fact i think towards the end they were dreaming of what they were going to get, while me i'm not hungry only thinking of having a pepsi max or ginger beer.
the photo of my feet is the preparation work i need to stop blisters, so i hope it works during the event, i dont normal show anyone as not so attractive but effective.
next weekend we are doing the water circuit and polly's so about 20km, so hope to knock that off quickly (5hrs).
only 8 wks to go and it it flying past fast, now i feel more recovered going to do some more training during the week as well.
