About Me

My photo
The older I get the better I was... but after many years of idle burrowing the candle of desire is still burning and I have come to realise that running is as much a part of me as my heart and lungs... In Christmas 2008 I was 82kg and was not running a step..This is my journey , the journey of the wombat...Dogged...determined...persistent...and maybe a little grumpy.. but like the wombat my journey is territorial, its about running and I am going to work to protect it...Come along for the ride and see if I can become the wombat warrior. 2009 was a mixed bag for the wombat's journey.A top ten placing in both the Bridges and the City Surf brought a small sense of achievement but also a degree of frustration.... I think I can do better and better I will in 2010. A better run in the Busso Half iron man in support of TV in his swim and bike ride and that was about the extent of my racing. Lets see what happens in 2010 as "My journey Continues". Now in 2011 the wombat will continue his journey, but not alone the wombat has a youngling who knows how to dig. 2015 and its a new beginning , time goes on and the journey to the 2016 World Masters is under way.

My morning done...

Covered my morning mileage and happily walked in through the gate. The runs are getting easier as long as I hold back from sprinting out the gate and trying to wind up the pace as I go.

At the present time everything is going well. No work due to the school holidays so that stress is out of the way and providing I get things done before Mrs Wombat needs my help with the little wombats everything is good. I will be working to get the balance of running , work and family sorted out before I get back to work and I am determined not to miss runs because I work back late.

Saw a number of kangaroos out on the trail today. The just stood there watching as I ran past. More than likely wondering why a creature would bother running in the morning if it was not trying to get away from danger. I am finding , as I always do, that the more I do the more I want to do. The hard bit is holding back and being sensible about it....
