Well, the streak is over and ended officially on January 31st (though I didn’t take a day off until Friday 3rd). Have to say it’s a relief but, even though I’m trying to rest a little before this weekend’s event at Caboolture, I’m finding it difficult to get my head around not training.
Now then, to the weekend.
The Dusk ‘til Dawn event has been running in one form or another since 1994 and though he didn’t organise the race from the beginning, it’s existence is attributable to the eccentric Geoff Williams. All proceeds go to the The Caboolture Historical Village.
Geoff is an ever present on the local scene and pops up at most events in some capacity, usually as a marshal or at a checkpoint (and has helped out at WHC).
Having taken part twice, I have mixed emotions about it as on the second occasion I succumbed to a pre-existing injury early on and turned the event into a walk (84 km in the end) which was disappointing after my initial foray. This year I’m looking to lean heavily on the base I’ve accrued though I’m very short on long runs.
With good crew in Keith Sullivan and Donna, I couldn’t be in better hands so we’ll see.
