Perth - City to Surf
Who's in? ...
I'm having a bash at the Channel Nine 12km run alongside a few of my Multiplex buddies ...
God help me.

Good luck.
You never know, I might join you some day - I've managed to get to 9 kms on my cross trainer

Re: Perth - City to Surf
I'm only doing it because we have a hospitality tent arranged for City Beach where I can ... *cough* ... "re-hydrate" at the end ...
9kms on the cross trainer ... that's a good effort gal.
Get your entry in for the lads ...

Re: Perth - City to Surf
We walked it with our daughter (9) last year and finished just ahead of the guy in a suit of armour - 2 1/4hrs or there about. I am tempted to try it on my own this time and aim for 90 mins alternating between sprinting and walking (some us were built for power rather than endurance!)

Re: Perth - City to Surf
Do you know of any running clubs in Perth? We are coming over in Nov and I want to join a sporty club, rather than a gym, in an aim to get fit, and to meet people.
Thanks
Tracey

Re: Perth - City to Surf
It ain't the same I am sorry to say. I can easily do 12km on the cross-trainer but 1km at a time on the treadmill is about my limit.

Good luck if you decide to do it again this year - break a leg
