Cadel Appreciation Day

How is today going to play out today? I have no clue. Just looking at the paper, remembering that all the riders will want to conserve or take a maillot today with the climb over Galibier and final ascent up Alpe d'Huez, here are some thoughts.
Garmin lead Leopard and AG2R by 10 minutes. They will want to get as many over Gaibier as possible. Also Hushovd needs points at the late intermediate sprint. Joining him will be Rojas and Gilbert (points).
Vanendert and Sanchez will attack on Galibier to get maillot point rouge.
Basso and Cunego will be marking each other to be best Italian.
F Schleck will attack today on Alpe d'Huez. A.Schleck will mark Cadel and attack if he makes a mistake. Cadel will mark everybody.
Voeckler will clng like a limpit.
Wot about me...one hour jog, easy 30 later...heart will be pumping...racing starts soon:-) The weather is fine, maybe a shower later.
Go Cadel

Good commentary SBx, but above all else - Yell for Cadel...

Have had a good week this week:

Monday - 1.8km warm up 4x300 hill sprints, 1.8km warm down;

Wednesday - BBQ Stakes nice steady 29mins;

Friday - Custom Joggers sharper run 22.13, with quite a bit left in the tank, maybe on the road to recovery...

A big weather event is brewing for much of my local area this afternoon and weekend. Up to 100mm predicted to fall with damaging winds. I've been through a few of these periods now. I've started setting up for indoor training. This morning a quick trip to the shop for supplies that the puppy will eat, another short run solo, and a short puppy training session of fetch the ball. I ran 80 minutes just before the weather arrived. Tassie Masters Athletics posted this video from the Australian Masters Athletics Championships mixed XC race a few days ago on their Youtube site. A great memory from such a great event.
