Stromlo XC : 5000m by intervals : 7 x 2 minutes + 300m with 30 seconds stretch, jog recovery

This morning with Steve at Stromlo 5000m by intervals on the undulating 2500m circuit. Ended up being 7 x 2 minutes + 300m with 30 seconds stretch, jog recovery. Overall pace of intervals was around 3:20/km. Completed 5000m in 18:45 including stretching and jogging.

That's my third day straight of hard sessions. I'm asking for trouble if I keep this up. I won't be working on Wednesday, will have a sleep in to aid recovery. Track 3000m on Thursday.

All up 9km this morning, 40 minutes slow recovery run this afternoon, 120km last 7 days.

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.
