A Couple of Reminders

July 14, 2010

Don’t forget to pencil the 31st of July in your diaries for the New Voices Literary Festival. It will be great!

This coming Sunday is the Run Melbourne Half Marathon. I’ve spent a few days in serious deliberation about whether to line up and run or not. Although I am better this week, I am still congested and snotty. I don’t want to do anything silly like risk an injury or put my body under stress it can’t handle, but I don’t want to renege on the commitment I made either. That’s not my style. Especially since I’ve had so many generous donations and I thank you all.

So this is what I’m going to do: I’m going to go and just see how it plays out. If I make the halfway point and say “I can’t go on” I will stop and run the remaining distance later. If I feel like I can keep going, I will.

Here’s the donation page if you want to take a squiz.

And wish me luck, please!

My mum is doing the 10km! I wish I could come and watch but I’m out of town. Best of luck – you can do it!
