It’s the first race for my 2025 running season. I’m a whole lot nervous for this one. Unlike previous years, I spent a big portion of my December 2024 travelling in the cold northern hemisphere and do not really feel fit enough for my first race. I will be channeling more of my experience than training for this one.

What happened in 2024, I couldn’t better my half marathon personal best. I ran a total of 940km for the year. My goal was 1000km. My average pace for the year increased from 7min/km to 6:47min/km. I ran a 10km best of 56mins. I had almost 2 months off running because of injury and travelling. It was a good year.

The goals for 2025 are to improve on my 2024 performances. Go one more. I always want to be better than yesterday. The main goal is to do a personal best in the half marathon. Hoping to run it sub 2 hours especially during the two oceans half marathon. This year it will be on the 6th of April. I started my 8 weeks training on the 1st of February.

Let’s go get it !!!!

It took a plane during take off less than 15mins to get to a marathon distance. This is during takeoff. This activity was rightfully flagged by Strava.
