Single Track, Gravel and Grass Trail Run Arboretum and Stromlo 21km

Afternoon run mostly on single track and grass at Stromlo of 21km. I was feeling good until a stumble and hitting my chin on a small stone. Not much pain, lots of blood. At Stromlo no wind as opposed to 40km/hour yesterday. Next session probably on Tuesday after it warms up, long intervals at race pace. There will be rain late Wednesday to Friday.

This is the end of week 9 in this base training block, just 113km this week after a couple of easier days on Friday and Saturday. Gold Coast Half Marathon is less than 2 weeks away. I'll have a couple of easier days prior to that 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.
