Hi. I'm currently training for a 24hr ultra in Oct 2007. To set the scene, I am coming back to running after a long break, I'm about 10 kilos over weight, and my 10km time is about 15 mins slower than I would like. My weekly mileage is hovering around the 40mpw mark but is about to increase. As an intermediate goal I'm running a trail marathon on 01 Oct. What are you guys up to?

Well guys. I'm back. At last. After starting this user group up, and completing the trail marathon, I then had to undergo some fairly major surgery. As a result, I haven't run for 18 mths. My aim is still to be in shape to run a 24hr ultra. My training will have to start again from square one - so I guess I'm looking at Autumn 2009. It's so good to see so many ultra runners/hopefuls in the group. I think I'm going to need your support!!! Purdey. Big grin

Hey Johnny! Yep. Totally recovered now. Will have to take it very easy - went for a 3 mile (!) jog this morning and really felt it! Never mind. Roll eyes
