Modern Athlete Irene Ultra

 

Keeping up with the training and the promise to do the Two Oceans (which I am struggling to get an entry for, by the way). I have yesterday donned my threads and partook in my first Half Marathon. 

All in all, I can honestly say that it went better than expected. There is an uphill climb (I think Olievenhoud Avenue) about 13km into the race. It is, in the greater scheme of things, not a huge or long uphill, but I really struggled with that one. But once I reached the top there, the I was pretty sure I could finish it.

Did not break any records, but I am suitably chuffed with my 2:20:55 time.

I just had to put this somewhere - Radiohead's Fake Plastic Trees

I'm too dumb to fully appreciate Radiohead and their music. But sometimes a light goes on for me. This was one of those moments. For you...
