Bay 2 Bay Training Program Week 12

You have arrived at the week leading into the Bay To Bay Running Festival. Well done on completing the training program for the previous 11 weeks.  Everyone has come so far since week 1 and should feel really proud, well prepared and ready to run. I certainly am proud of everyone and really hope you enjoyed the training.  I truly enjoyed writing the programs.

I wish everyone a really great run and I hope you achieve your personal goal.  Remember to have fun and enjoy the finish into the Central Coast Stadium and across the finish line.

I hope to see everyone after the run. Make sure you come up to me after - I’d love meet you and hear how you went.
