You're joking

Having perused the race book for TBLRCU (my knee is still a bit painful but seems to be improving thanks for asking please keep all digits crossed not that I'm FREAKING OUT about it no no no no nooooo) and studied the course maps, I cast my mind back to happy times at the mighty MCG - great days at the footy, concerts, and of course VSMs #1 and #3. I visualised running the last km strongly, steaming up the chute to get my next bit of awesome bling.....
and then I thought, hang on.....
the new finish is Up. A. Hill.
Look at Jolimont St East Melbourne on g00gle street view if you think I'm making this up. I wish I was.
Brilliant.

More anon. I'm going to have another cup of tea now, and make up some cheesy visualisation about being pulled up the hill by a giant tractor beam.

It isn't a hill- it is a minor bump and you will be fine! sara

Cheesy visualisation is quite all right! Go kill it. Don't look up, don't look back, just look forward.
