Have had 3 weeks off running, body feels good and mentally feel refreshed.
Have done 3 easy runs of 7km at lunch this week.
Its normal your motivation is a bit low so long your still getting out there and running.
Next goal for me will be 6FT marathon, hardest part about that is getting an entry.

Will be popping in asking a few questions of you guys that have done it every now and then... looking forward to upping the training in the new year!

I plan on running Barossa Marathon and still do Yurrebilla and possibly Heyson 105 (if body/mind/training permits)

I'm still plodding along...not trying to break any land speed records but more maintain at the moment 2-3 runs per week at the 8-12km range. Usually one road and two trail runs.
Key is to keep it up during the Christmas/New Year break when the temptation to have that extra beer of a night might make it hard in the morning.
Also the heat coming up makes it difficult. Does anyone have any tips on how to cope with the heat? (except for the obvious hydrate and go during the cooler times of the day)

Preparing and starting to get excited for my first marathon, Cadbury's in Hobart on Jan 12th. Done two 35-36 runs and hopefully one more this weekend before tapering.
Bit like you, MW, had a bit of an unmotivated time during early spring, only three runs a week and whilst still only doing three runs in total tried to increase my long run, rather than getting a base of at least 4 runs. Knew at the time it was pretty dumb, and think it may have contributed to an Achilles injury that set me back a couple of weeks.

My interupted year continues...suffered recently with some Capsulitis on the ball of my foot but that's come good finally.
I'm ramping up training for both City Bay and Yurrebilla 56km Ultra.
