The Second Two Oceans


2022 was a year filled with so much joy for my family. My wife and I welcomed our beautiful baby girl.

The first 4 months post giving birth as first time parents was all about surviving 😂😂😂. Not literally but we didn’t have time to run or exercise at all. My wife had actually being less active even before giving birth.

Fortunately, towards the end of 2022 we both got into the Two Oceans Half Marathon and we agreed to commence our training beginning of 2023.

My goal was to achieve a Personal Best and run the race under 2 hours. My wife wanted to finish it before the cut off time. We set up our Garmin Coach Training Plan and off we went.

Three months later we did it !! I didn’t achieve the 2 hour mark I wanted though . At the 15km mark I got a really terrible cramp that almost made me not finish the race. I still managed to push through and achieve a personal best time.

I’m super impressed by my wife to come back ten months later and run this race with me and finish it. It was quite a feat !!!

Now we are tinkering our fingers trying to find the next race to run. We such a bunch of winners ⭐️⭐️⭐️
