Tae Fighter... Thank you Master Choe !!


Will is doing great in Tae Kwon Do - Master Choe and his black belt team are an awesome site to watch. Their training method is tough, but obviously enjoyable - from 4yr old and up you can see how much they're learning. Good stuff :D

As for marathon training... it's all going well - although we were supposed to do a long tarmac run today, we are going to the gym later. Sam had a late night last night as she went to a George Michael concert! (And yes, she was singing along with the Wham songs!)

Now depending on the cost and the times etc. I may even join in - it's a good way to stretch the old bones!! Watch this space...

Well here we are in all our glory (and a lot of pain in the middle pic!) Thanks to my Garmin GPS watch (early Birthday present!) I was able to pace us to perfection.... we started out a little fast - had to pull in the reigns a little as all the newbs were a little over-zealous !!!! I noticed a few people pulling out before mile 3 with shocked looks on their faces :( ... by the halfway mark we'd managed a very respectable 3hr14m which gave us some breathing room for the 7hr cutoff time. 18 miles was our landmark - we'd not gone further than that in training... we had beaten our previous time by over an hour! I would say the last mile was probably the toughest, longest mile of our lives but the feeling at the finish line was more than overwhelming... yes, there may have been a tear or two!
