ACTVAC XC Handicap Mt Taylor

Normally windy and cold at Mt Taylor, today perfect again:-) I did a 10km warm up followed by 3.5km handicap. Mount Taylor course up,up,up,flat,flat,flat,down,down,down. I was at my maximum on the up and flat, cautious on the way down with oncoming traffic and rocky at times surface. The time 12:21, one second slower than last year....that's what you get for being cautious:-)

A late afternoon run made it 24km for the day (felt great out there this afternoon) and over 130km for this week. Feeling good more days than not now after settling in to this high volume, high intensity training block.

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.
