BBQ Stakes 6.1km XC 23:09 as 7 x 3 minute intervals, 30 seconds jog ; Steve 3 x 2000m

Weather awful as a cold front passes through dumping snow on surrounding hills, very strong winds, no sun. At BBQ Stakes hilly 6km XC run a set done in full body cover as 7 x 3 minute efforts with 30 seconds jog recovery. My total time 23:09, Helen same set in 31 minutes with a warm up during start of run.

At Stromlo XC circuit in similar awful conditions Steve ran 3 x 2000m efforts in 7:33, 7:36 and 7:48.

An afternoon recovery run for me, long recovery run on Thursday, Friday and Saturday shorter easy runs to freshen up for City2Surf 14km road race on Sunday.

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.
