Parkrun Ginninderra 17:32 1st ; Stromlo XC 4-5 x 600m XC intervals

Parkrun Ginninderra this morning. Weather no wind, cloudy, warm, very humid. My 4th effort at the event in four weeks. Times 23:34,18:34,17:47 and 17:32 today. Splits: 3:23,3:26,3:37,3:37,3:25. No pain in the calf. I struggled after 2km, finished off OK. With some more interval sessions mid-week I'll start aiming at a sub-17 minute run in the next month.

Steve at Stromlo ran 5 x 600m xc intervals. Splits: 1:57,1:57,1:56,1:53,1:51

Also at Stromlo a little later Alison, Kathy, Helen, Gabe and Maria were there. Alison led others through 4 x 600m xc intervals. Gabe and Maria opted for longer efforts.

This afternoon a recovery run on bush tracks. Tomorrow a long recovery run of 21km+. Yesterday was a running commute to work and back, 16km all up. 124km last 7 days.

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.
