Les Bossons : Long 5000m Paced XC Intervals : 6 x 3 Minutes ; Tour de France Depart Megeve

At lunch my first 5000m paced long set in a few weeks. The track undulating mostly soft surface with a few steep pinches. Altitude varied from 900m asl to 1100m asl.

The set: 20 minute jog warm up, 6 x 3 minute intervals with 60 seconds float recovery, last 3 minute effort up hill on bitumen, short warm down. Another 40 minute run done in the afternoon (after the Tour de France finishes on TV).

This morning a short drive to Megeve for the depart of Tour de France.

We leave this hotel tomorrow, head for Col des Aravis, on our way to Annecy.

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.
