Now the legs are coming back, Melbourne Marathon is next, and Murray has given himself a fairly ambitious little target for what he’s casually describing as his “42K jog”.
But his attention is already being pulled towards the longer stuff.
We chat about how his Delirious training is starting to take shape, the rather large training weeks he has planned for early next year, and why learning how his body recovers could be just as important as piling on more kilometres.
There’s also a Bali Backyard Ultra to organise, some early Delirious gear thinking, and a possible new strategy for dealing with snakes.
I’m not entirely convinced about that last one. 😂

💛 Running used to clear your head. Now it’s another thing weighing on it. Let’s change that.
If you’re tired of dragging yourself out the door, feeling guilty when you don’t, or comparing every run to what you used to do, Feel Like a Runner Again is for you.
This practical program helps you quiet the mental noise, drop the pressure, and rediscover running as time for yourself.
Less “I should go for a run.” More “I’ve missed this.”
