Chalons en Champagne

Two runs today, first in Beaune 45 minutes including 4 x 2minute intervals and second 45 minutes in Chalons en Champagne. The first run would have been longer and with more intervals but the fierce hail storm and flooding of yesterday afternoon had all the vineyard staff checking the damage. In truth most were just standing there with arms folded...not much they could do really except count their losses.

We are almost finished here in France. Just a few days to shop and sort out the car, pack again and head home. I will be up early tomorrow before the sun gets too hot to do those intervals I missed. Staying here for two nights before the final night at Paris CDG airport to ensure we get in a decent run on Saturday morning before boarding the aircraft at noon.

Good luck to all doing the Runners Shop 10km...I always seem to miss it.

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.
