BBQ Stakes 6km XC Handicap 21:55 ; Steve 3 x 1000m

Wednesday lunch time run at BBQ Stakes 6km XC handicap. Weather cool with drizzle and some wind. My time of 21:55 a recent PB since October 2019 when I ran several times of around this level. Looking at the splits I was slow in the first kilometre today compared to 2019 due to a head wind and not enough warm up. Splits (500m): 1:52,1:56,1:56,1:48,1:40,1:50,1:56,1:52,1:37,1:41,1:49,1:44.

On Tuesday Steve ran 3 x 1000m efforts. Splits: 3:28,3:26,3:28 showing Steve is still in great form.

Next set on Thursday, 500m efforts at Stromlo XC circuit. On Saturday Parkrun.

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.
