Marathon Eve
After 18 weeks of training the Next Big Thing is nearly here.
By this time tomorrow I will have completed the 2006 Melbourne Marathon.
Even though I think my training has been a little lacking at times, I am still confident that if I pace myself sensibly, I will be running the whole way with a 3:45ish time.
Regardless of what happens on the day I am going to soak up the atmosphere and have FUN.
I would like to thank EVERYONE for your great comments and support. Without out this blog and all your encouragement I don't think tomorrow would be happening.
I hope everybody has a great weekend with their own running achievements.

Good morning SD ;)
Great attitude for the Big One. It's an amazing experience. I'm looking foward to the report.
I've been thinking of you and Australia this morning, thinking that it should be about now when you are going to be there on what finally became a fast journey!
You are such a fast guy that certainly will find most of everything lots of fun, now that the concept of fun is known!!!
Enjoy, have fun and set a great PR!!
Hope to hear from you soon!!
