Sounds like you are in good shape for Melbourne.

Anyone running City to Bay this year? My target time this year is 55 minutes. Anything under is a bonus.

Yep i'm there. If can get a reasonably clean run at the start can hopefully get anywhere between 50-55 minutes.

Yeah getting a clear run at the start is not normally a problem for me but from 6k through to the end is a nightmare.

50 minutes would be awesome! I think if I run my best, I can get to 54, especially cause I don't want to risk doing anything that might hamper the Yurrebille Ultra Marathon next week.

Don't count on it...apparently the start times did not register so no official times will be available.

Times have started appearing on the official page. Seems that most are 'gun' times so it's recorded from an 8am start

They are putting up a link later so you can submit a manual time.

I think so! All the training is done so lets hope it helps for the event. I'm not going out for any PBs or trying to win or anything like that, just want to finish. In saying that, I would like to come in under 7 hours but we will see...this distance is new territory for me.

Fair to say I am getting very nervous.
