Long Threshold XC Run

Another hot one, over 36 expected again so an early start.

At Stromlo only on the 2000m XC circuit a 2km warm up, 80 minutes continuous at lower threshold (4:00-4:07/km), 1000m warm down. A short loosener later to make it 28km for the day.

That's long run #12 since the ribs thing and week weeks average of 130km. One more week of hard work and then an easy week or so coinciding with the Oceania Masters Athletics Championships 5000m and Half Marathon.

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.
