Occasionally I have a bright spark idea - here are two. What do you think?

Okay, Bright Spark Idea #1 is not unique. But I am very good at looking at what others do, and then copying them. This is one of those times.

For the Tailwind Nutrition 3 Marathons in 3 Days I'm going to introduce a 'Mini-Race' on Day 2. I don't really know what people call this, so we need to find a name for it! Competitors will be timed from the Bridle Creek Checkpoint for the 3km loop until they get back onto Bridle Creek Road. The fastest male and female over that section of the course will win a prize each.

Bright Spark Idea #2 is not unique either. Ha! Maybe I didn't quite get the title of this blog post correct today.

Start up a fundraising page with all the money raised to be donated to the Ovarian Cancer Australia. The reason I'm picking them is that my mum had ovarian cancer and died less than three years after her diagnosis. She was 48 years old. I may end up with ovarian cancer myself. Who knows. But apart from the money going to a good cause, I'm also doing it to keep myself motivated with my training. Ovarian Cancer Australia have their main fundraising in March each year, which is also going to be my highest mileage month prior to me doing the CWU.

The fundraising page is here.
