Cycling Commute 48km ; Stromlo XC 5km incl 1min hard,1min easy ; Steve 5 x 3 minutes, 1min recovery

Another cold, dark morning commute on the MTB and return after work of 48km. In the late afternoon a 5km run at Stromlo XC circuits including 1 minute hard, 1 minute easy. This is starting to look like a repeat of 2007 when I cut over from cycling to running again. Cycling to work and back, some running, good results with both disciplines along the way. I ran some good half marathons, a great duathlon and marathon and even quick on the track that year. I never want to race on the bike again no matter how fast I might be able to ride.

Steve in the morning ran 5 x 3 minute efforts with 1 minute recovery, all in the 3:30s, fastest 3:31. Good going for what now is or will be soon, winter training.

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.
