Steve 4 x 3 minute Efforts ; Active Recovery MTB

Wednesday morning set for Steve of 4 x 3 minute efforts. Pace was around 3:30/km. I commenced active recovery with a 7km walk on Tuesday followed by a 16km mountain bike ride today, to work and back. I will be incorporting bike riding into my training going forward for the next 6 months, either as a commute or structured session on criterium track on wind trainer indoors. It's been a while, I will need to toughen up my sit bones again. There was a period when I raced bikes on track and road between 2000-2007. I continued to ride when in Europe on travels, some memorable rides up Mont Ventoux, Col deu Galibier and many rides along the bike path by the lake between Annecy and Ugine. Canberra is a great place to ride too.

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.
