Hi Amelia,
Great article, which I have just accidently stumbled across! I am thinking of going for a good time in a marathon later on in the year, with the thought of trying for Boston in 2011. So you’re a good sales person for it! Ray

Hi Alice,

I’m glad to hear that training is going well. You have looked really strong at the last few events I’ve seen you at so I have no doubt you’ll smash Gold Coast! Make sure you email me afterwards, as I will be in the States when it’s on.
My main piece of advice; Really enjoy the first 30km. Settle into your pace and take it all in. The real race begins at 31km.
Best of luck
Amelia

Hi Amelia, I really appreciated reading your marathon blog – my heart rate actually went up when I was reading about your last 2ks! Am training for my first marathon (Gold Coast) and while my training is on target I’m still afraid! Thanks for showing the way.

Congratulations Amelia! Your running commentary was so good that now I don’t need to run a marathon, you’ve done it for me – thanks!

Well done Amelia!
I love the video clip ‘the day after a marathon.’ Not that I’d know, but I imagine that’s how one would feel!
