ACTVAC XC Handicap Mt Ainslie

Great conditions for running this morning, so nice to see the sun. The track muddy and slippery in places for my poor choice of shoes.

I ran absolute to my limit and felt great pushing very hard on the hills. 16th place the best I could do. The time 30 seconds slower than last year for me. Similarly as slow as yesterday, I will have to taper hard later this week.

Didn't get much sleep due to watching TDF last night and Minnie off to Sydney at 5am. Will make up for it this afternoon.

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.
