Parkrun Queens Domain 1st 17:24 91.38% Age Graded Course Record ; Steve Parkrun Coombs 4th 18:16

So much for an easy run! I ran from hotel, then did a lap of the course as a warm up (except the XC bit mid-course) and loved the terrain which was a wide bitumen tarmac with power rises and falls, mostly protected from wind. It was nice to chat to some Tassie friends post event. I started slow, then near full gas. Splits (500m): 1:40,1:35,1:32,1:36,1:49,1:55,1:48,1:56,1:52,1:35=17:24, setting a new age graded record for this course.

Sunday morning early Easter Half Marathon. Looking forward to redeeming my calf tear fail to complete course from 2020.

Back in Canberra Steve ran Parkrun Coombs in 18:16. Splits: 3:32,3:39,3:45,3:36,3:33,0:10

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.
