Cheers, BB. Well, I've long stated that I would like to run an ultra someday. Nothing too serious, mind. There are a couple of 60-70km ultras down here that really appeal, but to be honest, that's still getting too far ahead of myself. I'll get through the next half mara in May, then my sights are more or less firmly set on a full mara at the end of July. That will be the range-finding mission: how I go there will determine whether I aim next for a quality PB mara in September, an ultra or maybe just forget the whole thing. It really could go any which way.
But geez, Sweder's stories about his ultras such as the Two Oceans and the Connemara are pretty motivating.
We shall see. That's all I can say for now.
April May be alright.
