Long Run 20km

Another long run at lunch of 20km out and back. A gorgeous day for running, warm with light winds. As is autumn the mornings and nights are another story.

Entries have closed for Australian Masters Athletics Championships, almost 700 entries which the organisers claim is a record. Quite a few coming from overseas.

Australian Masters Athletics Championships is run over 4 days with a tight program. If I am well trained I can handle the 10000m, 1500m, 5000m and 8000m XC on consecutive days but it makes tactics different. After the 10000m the 1500m and 5000m usually become sit and kick or kick down as I save myself for the cross country. I was very sore for the 5000m in Adelaide last year.
