Yurrebilla 56km Ultra Marathon #3, 2013

#3

I ran my 3rd Yurrebilla 56km Ultra on Sunday and all went well.  My running buddy and I decided to take this Event on the quite side as we've got the Heysen 105 [km] coming up next month, which will be more way more of a Stamina test.

However, this year the flowing creeks at Horsnell's Gully and Morialta where just the thing to revive my tired leg muscles.  And although it was a warm 9 hour day, it was a great way to spend a day in the Adelaide Hills.

I manged a 5/13 for my gender age group which was exciting but sprinting the last 50meters over the finishing line was so much fun!  So looking forward to Yurrebilla, 2014.

Someone has a weird sense of "Little"

Running is so much Fun!

We did it.

Yep, it certainly is a long way!
