The Dual trail run - 2016

Every year that I enter the Dual I am impressed by the level of organisation and coordination from the organisers Total Sport, and this year was no different.  The team and all the volunteers do an incredible job keeping multiple events on track and safely managed.As with prior years I have continued to gradually improve, finding the course marginally less painful and achieving a personal best of 2 hrs and 13 mins - an 11 minute improvement on my first attempt in 2013.  I still find the half marathon course plenty challenging though, and there's a lot of room for improvement so I am determined to train harder and trim my finish time down again in 2017.
