Sleep Train: February 2010
http://sleeptrain.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Wednesday, February 24, 2010. Was reading a great article by Deek in the August 1983 edition of Runners World where he mentions that over his career (up to 1983 anyway) he only had 10 days off training due to injury. The fascinating bit was his explanation why he was so fortunate in this regard. Deek says there’s 2 types of fitness, physiological fitness (say aerobic condition) and muscular- skeletal strength (bones and how muscles connect to them). Coming from a swimming background as a kid, and then a ...

Monday, September 20, 2010. Another 3 Peaks Trip Report. Click on picture above to see 2 of the 3 peaks). Why you would enjoy trudging along Narrow Neck ridge late on a cold Saturday night, alone, and after already running, walking and bashing through 80 of the toughest kilometers you could imagine, and being continually drawn back to do so many times, may be a tough question for some? Myself included. This trip report will try and answer this question. We were quickly on top of the Gouagang cairn and th...

Sleep Train: January 2010

Thursday, January 21, 2010. No time to blog this week. Friday, January 8, 2010. 6 Foot Training Program Launch. For the latest on the BMMC, or to train with us go to: www.thebmmc.webs.com. We are going to do X, Y and Z”. He will then explain how and what the body will do in response to the prescribed stress from training. This last bit is my favorite part because it builds my belief and confidence in the program. I will publish the program, but not until after March 13, for two reasons:. For example, I w...

Sleep Train: November 2010

Thursday, November 4, 2010. Woodford Dam Trail Race: Race Report. The 2nd race of the RW Trail Running World Series. What a great course this race featured. I had been to Woodford Dam only twice before for swims in summer, but had never actually run around this area. And, if you are the Sydney Catchment Authority I totally deny this first sentence. After a pleasant run past some waterfalls, and a few nice swamp bridges, we were back on a main track and then a road on our way down to Woodford Lake and Dam.

Sleep Train: March 2012

Tuesday, March 20, 2012. Latest camping trip in the Wollemi. I soon found Clews Cave (see Topo) and then proceeded to climb half way up The Island with spot height of 545m before climbing down a narrow pass to the Colo river. This pass drops 280m in just over 300m – close to a 45 degree slope. The Island as seen from above Clews Cave. Pic 1 View of flooded Colo at Wollangambe R. Pic 2 Camp Site. Pic 3 Some bloke from 1943. View of Main Creek from Clews Ridge east. Day 3 started retracing my steps east al...

Monday, March 8, 2010. Good Luck All 6 Footers. Good luck everyone racing this weekend in the big one. Will be at start and finish on crewing duties for fellow BMMC, including one of the official BMMC race photographers. I usually wouldnt induldge in tipping, but since I'm not in the race:. My tips for top 3 Men:. 1st, Andrew Lee (warrimoo local, great bloke and lives only a few hundred metres from my place so will keep tiltle in the suburb). 2nd or 3rd, Matthews and Andrew Tuckey to fight it out.

Sleep Train: May 2010
http://sleeptrain.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
Tuesday, May 11, 2010. Sleep on Come Backs. Comeback stories are usually glamorous tales that inspire. Like a good Rocky movie, they usually involve an inspiring soundtrack, a few motivational speech scenes, a training montage of key workouts and the feature bout where Balboa defeats his opponent (Apollo, Mister T, Ivan Drago etc). Or another race after July if I'm not ready? Run 2: Thursday mornings standard from Scams mansion, with VstaR and J Foghorn for an abbreviated version of the basic Hill Circuit.

Friday, November 9, 2012. Sleep’s 2012 Review. As my 2012 running season drew to a close after Sunday’s BMJs 10k handicap race, I thought a few 2012 running reflections were in order. Depending how you look at it, 2012 could be defined as either a year of cancelled events, missed opportunities, reoccurring niggles, general apathy towards running, or more positively defined statistically as my most outstanding year yet! Soon after I got serious-ish. After an eerily misty 7:30pm race start I was locked in ...
