So the Adelaide City to Bay Fun Run start is a little 15 hours away.

I’ve worked hard for this, pool sesions, personal training and pilates. I’ve focused on endurance training the past couple of weeks. Something I havn’t always enjoyed!

Today I’ve finished off my race preperation which was in the form of a visit with my Physio.

I’ve been told in the past I’m a young strapping man, today I certainly am strapped!

Ankle and knee are strapped to ensure I have the support I need to ensure I don’t hurt myself.

I didn’t sleep much last night and I expect the same problem tonight. I’m so pumped about what tomorrow holds. When I visited my Physio this morning she made comment about my big smile. I’m beaming today, something that you virtually never see.

For me it’s a personal goal to complete the walk, it’s a consolidation of so many things which I hold near and dear.

Last night I discovered there will be a live cam on the finish line viewable at  live.adam.com.au I expect to cross the finish line somewhere between 10:30am and 11:00am it will depending on the start that I get.

This afternoon I went for a little walk to test out my strapping and make sure I was happy with it. Strapping when done right enhances performance, but it’s a trade-off between support and immobilization. Plus if you’re not careful you can actually weaken muscle groups too.

I will try and post twitter updates where possible follow me twitter.com/ipilko

Catch you after the race 🙂
