AIS Track : Short Lactate Intervals ; Humble Satellite Dish French TV

Steve and I at the track. Warm to hot and some wind in the back strait as usual. The set: 6.5km warm up, 4 x 100m (fastest 14.7), 5 x 300m with 100m jog recovery in 35-40 seconds. Total time 1500m=4:21, a little quicker for Steve. Difficult for me, still a bit chesty from the virus, very pleasing still quicker than last week.

Tomorrow I will test a few laps at track in the mile to see if it's OK to run on Friday in the ACT masters 3000m championship. I am hopeful.

Mr Jim x 2 arrived today to install a satellite dish and decoder purely for French TV, a way of encouraging my french as a second language in between visits. I started talking to Bella the dog in French last evening in preparation. Poor thing was a little confused at first although like most Border Collies would has now added 'pain au fromage avec tomat et moutarde' to her vocabulary in the 8pm time slot.

Ha! We're still not sure if our little one, Rita, even knows her name is Rita! We tend to speak Spanish to her, which means kids in the neighbourhood get a little confused why she doesn't respond to "Sit" when they meet her. :)

Big Weather Event Brewing ; Indoor Training ; Australian Masters Athletics Championships Mixed XC race

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.
