Well, a little bit faster on the clock time at 2hr 17min, but wasn't feeling my best so a bit disappointed as i was trying to beat 2hr 10min

Pictures taken prior to running obviously, hence the smiles.

Well, it was a little nerve-wracking as you can imagine, but we managed to sell our house on the day. Didn't get quite as much as we had planned originally but the market is tailing off just a bit here in Auckland and we reckon that'll work back in our favour as we start to look around now.

We're out on our ears on Dec 21st and will be staying in Coromandel with Annabel's parents for a couple of weeks before hopefully moving into a new place in the new year. We've got a few that we're keen on but nothing definite as yet...

David Healy now the record holder for the total number of goals scored in a Europea Championship Qualifying Campaign at 13!

Despite losing recently to Latvia and Iceland (for crying out loud!) we have an outside chance of qualification if we beat Spain (remember 82?) and Latvia beat the Swedes. Healy, Healy, Healy!!

as if one wasn't enough, a few of us from the auckland half marathon effort are doing http://www.adra.org.nz/ which shoul dbe a little easier as it's along the familiar tamaki drive part of auckland which is mostly flat. See if i can crack 2 hours this time!!

Woohoo, did my first half marathon yesterday and it was brilliant! I gave the course a wee bit too much credit and set out quite slow over the first few kms, but picked it up from 8km to get a time of 2hr 10m. I reckon next year i can break the 2 hr mark on that course for sure. People had been going on about the harbour bridge being tough but i found the roads of the north shore from 8-12km harder. I'd only run 16km before the race the week before, but it's amazing how far adrenalin gets you on the day.

4am start, ferry to devonport at 5.30 and race start at 6.30. After the race, annabel, tommy and i went house hunting and by 7pm i collapsed. Have just woken up 13 hours later! Knees are suffering a wee bit...
