ACT Masters Athletics 3000m 10:15

Drizzle or rain most of the day, cold and windy...not great conditions for track but the meet went ahead and we got another race in over 3000m. Jacob M35, myself M55 and Steve M50 were the top 3 places, none of us were happy with our times. It was slow going out there. My splits(500m): 1:40,1:40,1:44,1:45,1:44,1:39 = 10:15

I got there 90 minutes early to ensure I ran more than 17km for the day. I ran 21 km including the race, lots of 100m strides and warm down.

On Friday a recovery run of 11km, Saturday morning Parkrun. I should be quicker than last week as the puddles will have dried up and my training form is better.

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.
