The Riverton to Invercargill Marathon held on the 3rd November 2003.
I had been training for this for up to 4 months. Comments from people were
mixed. Those who encouraged me, I thank you. Those who reckoned I would not be
able to complete it, I also thank you, but with tongue in cheek. Your doubting
made me try even harder.
While I did not have this site up and running to log my training, I do,
however, have some photos I'd like to share with you all.
Here you can find the results...

Thanks dad. |
