ACTVAC XC Handicap : Stromlo Forest Park

A delayed start isn't a bad thing on a perfect autumn morning. Several of us out there for a final test with somewhat tapered legs. My quickest time ever on the circuit was only good enough for 8th place on handicap. Really felt great today...nice and light and with loose legs which will only get better later in the week. 2013 13:39, 2012 14:27, 2011 13:50. I had Steve (group 41, 15:00 net) to chase starting 1:45 ahead of me but never looked likely to reel him in.

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.
