Long Run Arboretum : Taper Mark 2

95 minutes alone in the Arboretum this morning...is was cold and sunny. Spent much of the day in the garden before an easy loosener on Mount Painter.

I'll get to fit in one track session before a 5000m race on Thursday. Since it is at 8pm conditions might be good. The next real race is City2Sea 15km in less than a fortnight. The One Hour run was good prep for that as will the 5000m. The track session will be some 600m effort x 3 along with the strides. Pace will be less than 3:00/km. Only 10-12km per day as I re-start my taper.

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.
