It's now October and I don't know where the time has gone! I went to Sydney with girls from Step into Life, Chelsea to run the "City to Surf", a 14km run from the city to Bondi Beach. This was a picturesque run which I completed in 1.16 hr and includes "Heartbreak Hill" which I managed to run all the way up.
I then did Tough Mudder, a 20km assault course invented for the British Special Forces, fotos are on Flickr!
Jack was selected to ref at the Nationals (Boys 13/14 Youth football) and was only 1 out of 4 chosen from Victoria. He was flown to Coffs Harbour in Queensland and had a great week there in beautiful weather (whilst it was rubbish here in Melbourne!) He won Ref of the Championship whilst there!
Yesterday he had to attend a presentation at Aami Park Stadium and was awarded with "Young Referee of the Year In Victoria"!!!
Will has decided to do World Challenge next November with school. He will go to Vietnam for a month and help build a school, teach English to under privileged children and do a bit of sight-seeing.It costs $6,000 and he is supposed to raise most of that himself , so he has got himself a job! It's at a new frozen yogurt cafe in Mordi called "Yo My Goodness!" and he is enjoying himself there. He has just come home from a 3 day camping trip to the Grampians.
I ran the Melbourne Marathon at the weekend and managed to knock 2 minutes off my time in the Gold Coast, coming in at 3.48hrs, which I was pleased with. The run was 42km all around Melbourne and ended up with a lap around the MCG - pretty cool! I have recovered even better than last time as well :)
Sam has finished football for the season and managed to get lots of shifts working at Bunnings during the holidays.
