City2Surf 14km : Taper Week for Steve and Jane

Steve and Jane tapering for City2Surf this week. Weather in Canberra still awful, minus 5 this morning, minus 4 for the session. Jane her session indoors on treadmill, had a niggle earlier in the week. Steve a reduced set of 3 x 3 minute efforts in minus 4 degrees (3:21, 3:27, 3:27) average 3:25/km. That's great again given the cold conditions.

City2Surf is one of the greatest races on the planet. It's a drama from start to finish and a relief to see the ocean and crowds in the final kilometres. I will certainly miss it this year.

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.
