Just Plain Running


In the holidays I did quite a lot of running. Training as well as races! On the first Saturday of the holidays I ran in the North Island Cross Country Championships and picked up 14th in the U-14 3km race. Only 1 year 8 pupil was ahead of me in this race and that was Jacob Priddey in 9th. Everyone else ahead of me was either year 9 or 10 and they achieved placing from 5th to 15th in the NZSSXC (New Zealand Secondary Schools Cross Country) so it was quite a good one considering age and growth difference and how hard the course was! In the second Saturday of the Holidays I was down in Napier competing in the Poverty Bay championship U-14 4km event which I picked up a decent placing FIRST! I won that event by 16 seconds over a kid who was 8th at North Island Champs! I then came home to Hamilton to compete in WBOP (Waikato Bay Of Plenty) Cross Country Championships. I Ran superb picking up 3rd and only losing to second by half a second! So overall I have had a superb action packed sporty holiday!
Cheers for reading.

Best 2km Ever

Today (30/5/09) Me and my mate Jacob did a race at the lake domain. We usually do 3km but so many little kids were running they shortened it to 2km. David Nyika finished 1st and me and Jacob finished a close 2nd and 3rd. I got 3rd which i was a little annoyed at but i killed my previous PB (Personal Best) By about 15 seconds so overall it was a good day. I hope for a good running season and to all of you out there go hard at your school cross country's because that is where the Pro's start!

Running At Camridge

Hey Guys I had running in Cambridge it was a three kilometer relay. Our team consisted of Me (MAREK) David Nyika and Jacob Priddey. Jacob had the fastest time with 12:09, Marek was second with 12:11 and David got 12:28 we smashed the other teams by 3 minutes. Each of us had to do 3 kilometers and by the end we were stuffed but it was fun and its just getting me closer to my dream of going to the Olympics for 1500mtrs!
