1st time able to do this course in less than an hour this year! Hard going the last 2k after 'hill', then under pressure to sprint the last k with nothing left at the end!

A Great Blue Mountain run, the first 5k ran too hard, found the heat tough, had to take off the top skin, 2 minutes lost. A few hard hills but mostly easy, hard going with some. Last 10k was easier a great course, will do it again next year.

Although not entirely happy with the time, considering only real training was the week before after a torn right hamstring taped for the run restricting movement, ran just under 5min per km pace to 21k then stiffness in right leg and slowed, but a great day. http://www.mapmyrun.com/routes/view/62631972

Enjoyable hard yakka! Heaps of hills, ran strongly for the first 25 minutes till pain in the right calf on downhill pushing too hard, became better after managing the pace. Shoes got wet through a few knee high water crossing, plenty more hills up to Mt Stromlo. What a great day it was worth the 3hr trip too and from Canberra. http://www.stromlorunningfestival.com.au/assets/image/LightningStrike30Profile_L.jpg http://www.stromlorunningfestival.com.au/assets/image/LightningStrike30Course_L.jpg

A great trail run, huge hills, lots of steps up and down with mostly narrow track, great coastal and native forest trail views. Fell on one step, a few close calls with tree roots. The 28k half way bell huge crowd on the run back, calf cramping at approximately 40k, no salt tablets, finish the 56k run with big hills at a much slower pace. The run was a fantastic managed event, congratulations to the organizers. http://www.mapmyrun.com/routes/fullscreen/61920806
