Only 33 mins done today...out I go for a lazy hour. 6 hours driving from Albertville to Paris today to be in a position to both watch Cadel win Tour de France (on tv) and live on the Champs tmoz...bravo Cadel
Woohoo - Yell for Cadel has worked, he has slaughtered the Schleck brothers in the time trial and pulls on the maillot jaune at the last possible moment, he just needs to have a safe ride in to Paris via the Champs Elysees and he will have made history for himself and Australia...
Great weather for running cross country, cool, cloudy, light winds on a super tough course, 2nd M60 in 31 minutes, my best run of the Championships. Nothing to do now but start heading north and back home after picking up a border collie pup on the way.
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.

Doing a 6 to 1 run now, starting with 1km warm-up followed by (1.8km+300m+1.5km+300m+1.2km+300m+900m+300m+600m+300m+300m+300m) then 1km warm-down...
