ACT Masters XC Handicap : Central Curtin 6.3km

No much XC running in this handicap. Just the climb up and down to the summit on fire trail, maybe 1km of 6.3km. The rest on narrow bike path with a few 90 degree turns. Weather was cool with a stiff breeze.

My run a near identical time to last year as M50. I felt very good out there.

Splits: 3:54 (up), 3:15 (up and down), 3:23, 3:23 (flat), 3:49 (up), 4:47 (1.3km up). 22nd place across the line. Results later.

Gary won the short course race on handicap with a belly minus some beer.

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.
