Long Intervals at Chartres

As luck would have it found an open athletics track in Chartres being used for housing Tour de France infrastructure folk who were mostly sun basking. Too good an offer to pass up...some of the crew even decided to race me for a lap:-)

The set: 1600m (514), 1600m (516), 800m (238), 400m (77)...best I could do.

Then walking the city, streets, window shopping, picque nique and watching early riders finish...now back in the motel watching the final riders on tv.

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.
