ACT Masters Athletics Championships Racing Period 2021

With the cancellation of the Australian Masters Athletics Championships due to Covid closed state borders I've moved my peak racing period to coincide with the ACT Masters Athletics Championships 2021. That brings it forward by a few weeks. The racing period: 28th January 1500m ; 13th February 5000m, 18th February 800m, 25th February 10000m. Most of my preparation for the 1500m will be done in Adelaide, South Australia. Weather in the racing period is often very hot with some thunderstorms in the evening. I don't expect things to keep to plan.

In January 2010 I was in Adelaide watching the cycling (same reason this time). I took my season best 3000m for 9:29 to 9:14 shortly after I returned. See diary extract.

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.
