September is here …

PPRA Fun Run

Damn! Can you believe that we’re literally hours away from the month of September?!

Have you got all your races planned for the month? 

This weekend if you’re in the Paulshof area and still looking for a run to join this Sunday 4th September why not consider the Paulshof Residents & Ratepayers Association FUN RUN supporting the Guide Dogs Association South Africa.

They have a 4km Fun Run/Walk, dogs and prams allowed so bring the family. The second distance for the more “serious” and adventurous runners out there, there’s the 8km Run .. or Walk if you’re more inclined.

FNB10K 2016

24th September is the FNB10KRUN.

I ran the first one about two years back. This year the race seems to have additional sponsors and promises to be loads of fun exploring our awesome city.

Have you entered any of these Jozi runs?

Besides the road races, I’ve started my training for #DischemSwim at Sun City late October. Have also decided to change the pool I train at to see if it will assist with improving my time, and swim an actual 1500m instead of 1200m in a 20m pool. Last year I thought I was swimming 1500m when I wasn’t.

I’m planning to also support my swim training by adding some gym time. Light weights and some exercises to strengthen my one glute that seems to be needing some TLC. Who knows I may still enter a triathlon this year, now though the focus is to regain my fitness.
