To Runnerstribe,
The last time I wrote an article I was sitting up in the lodge at Charlotte Pass and again I find myself doing the same. There is not much else to do up here – except train, and recover and some uni work when the motivation levels are aroused for that kind of thing. That said, it’s an ideal place to be at this time of year as we head towards the business end of the domestic season.
I have been happy with my results over the past month. I was able to run a good race in Hobart in a personal best time for my first run over the 1500m for the season. Then a bit quicker up at Sydney a couple of weeks later, and in doing so, breaking the 3:40 barrier and coming away with a Commonwealth Games B-qualifier. My next and most recent run was at the Melbourne World Athletics Tour Meet, which was a slow tactical race.
As I mentioned earlier I do have some University work to contend with this year, as I embark on an Honours year to finish off my Undergraduate degree. I think it is important to have a balance in life, but the decision to do another ‘stint’ up a Charlotte’s was an easy one.
I’m looking forward to having a few more runs over the 1500m before Nationals in Perth and the final preparations that I’m undertaking now will hopefully have me in peak condition come mid April.

Brenton,
That is very interesting, but I wonder what the guys with the A qualifiers are doing? Better get those motivation arousal levels up as you will need an income other than running. All the best in Perth, see over you there

Brenton,
Great done on the win at Vic state championships. You are running very much good. Me completing study and also know how it take lot of arousal to get up for it. I driving taxis and doing study and trying to run and it was very much hard.
Respect what you do.
