BBQ Stakes Maximum Threshold 6km 21:59

40th anniversary of BBQ Stakes lunchtime run today, my 40th run. Over 90 starters today with warm weather, a little wind, mostly sunny.

Helen and I both had our fastest runs since late last year. Helen was testing new promo shoes, I wore training shoes to protect the niggles. Helen 30:01, myself 21:59. I'm very close to full fitness again, can slip into normal training routine once more.

Afternoon recovery run made 18km for the day. I'll be over 120km for the week.

Tomorrow evening at track I'll probably have a cruise over 3000m.

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.
