First marathon (well, nearly!)

First marathon (well, nearly!)

Our plans to run the Tongariro N.Circuit yesterday were scuppered by the weather – too much snow on the high ground – unbelievable for early May! So instead Greg and I ran the 42 Traverse through the Tongariro Forset. Better known as a mountain biking track it is nevertheless a really nice 40km trail run.

Greg and I head down to Tongariro this afternoon. Tomorrow we want to do the first training run on a Challenge track – the Tongariro Northern Circuit. But will we get a gap in the weather? It’s touch and go…. how I love winter training!
