Half marathon road trip extravaganza ✨ We ate, Half marathon road trip extravaganza ✨ 
We ate, drank, ran, recovered, drove and discovered a beautiful pocket of Victoria.

Stop over in Geelong with dinner at Nectar. A stop off at for lunch at Morta Deli in Torquay then on to Wye River with incredible accommodation overlooking Great Ocean Road (thanks Anita 🤍). Food here was all about the half marathon before and after (will do a post on that for the few people who asked). 

Great Ocean Road run was awesome, I really loved it! It was Ben’s first ever half and he smashed it 💥 

Next stop Port Fairy and we all loved it! An unexpected delicious fresh meal at a pub, restaurant was called The Stump.

Then off to Daylesford, I’ve been there before and still love it 😍 We did a sauna and bath hour to help the tired muscles but mostly ate 😉 Highly recommend Bar Merenda, Bistro Terroir and the anchovy toast and wine at Winespeake 🙌🏼 Delicious pastries and coffee at Wombat Hill Cafe. Thanks for all the Daylesford tips @joyously.aware 🙏🏼

Big thanks to @richardsnowdenrealestate who held down the house, dog and reno while I was away, we missed you ❣️
23km of the Great Ocean Road done 🌊🏃🏼‍♀️

I like having goals. I actually love having something to work towards and the structure of training. I like having a reason to train. 

The legs felt good today. Even with those hills I beat my Queenstown half time 😅 Huge thanks to @coach_kissick @whynot_performance_ for building my strength and @run_coaching for guiding us through!

Went from gale force winds and pouring rain before the start, then clearing to just a few showers and actually ending up being a cracker day!

Pre-race fuel looked like:
🥣 ~20g Coco Pops
🥤 1/3 bottle Rokeby Chocolate
🍯 Crumpet with honey

Race fuel:
⚡️ Clif Bloks Salted Margarita every 30 mins
⚡️ Swapped to Precision Fuel later on

Only around 30g carbs/hour for me today, which is lower than I’d normally aim for, but my gut still hasn’t fully recovered after antibiotics so this felt like my happy place to keep energy stable without upsetting my stomach.

Post-race was:
🥤 The rest of the Rokeby
🥔 Chips (the salt tasted AMAZING)
🍔 Chicken burger for lunch
🥗 Leftover roast chicken, veggies, fresh salad and a mandarin for dinner.

A good reminder that sports nutrition doesn’t need to be “perfect” nutrition.

👇🏼What’s your go-to race fuel and favourite post-race food?
Absolute legend 🙌🏼 Run like a girl they say Absolute legend 🙌🏼 Run like a girl they say 🤔
Hallelujah ✨ Hallelujah ✨
