Stomlo XC Intervals 3 x 600m

Unseasonal wet weather continues with Stromlo XC circuit saturated,lush and slow. Early morning set with Steve. I have an 800m on Thursday. I slowed down the early part of each interval an made sure the final 200-300m were quick.

The set: Warm up, 5 x 100m strides, 3 x 600m efforts, warm down. Splits: Steve: 1:53, 1:51, 1:47. Me: 1:48, 1:44, 1:41. That's my quickest set running with Steve. The 100m and 200m strides on Sunday has lifted my speed. Steve back into the 1:40s is promising.

An easy recovery run this afternoon. Easy running tomorrow also with strides. My final race for 2017 an 800m handicap on Thursday.

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.
