Recovery Run 17km incl 4 x 100m, 2 x 200m, 300m hills : Australian Masters Athletics Championships 2022 Draft Program

Morning run of 17km including a set of power hill strides to finish. Hills were steep and run at a strong pace. On Saturday morning at Stromlo XC circuits a set of short and longer intervals.
The Australian Masters Athletics Championships 2022 Draft Program has been released. To be held in Brisbane over 4 days from 1st April, the program is a depart from the stable format over more than a decade. It will barely make a difference to me. 1st April 5000m ; 2nd April 8000m XC ; 3rd April 1500m ; 4th April 10000m. The championships will be my first major peak for 2022 with a short gap to another peak in June/July for the World Masters Athletics Championships in Tampere, Finland.

Long Intervals

Of me: Early set. Same set as last 2 weeks, quicker again. 2000m (631), 1600m (5:13), 1200m (3:57)[first 4 efforts at 10km pace], 800m (2:30), 400m (69)...all with 200m recovery. Running technique much better. Form much better...not sure how much the form is due to iron jab or 5 weeks of consistent training and some great sessions. Of the others: I paced 5200m at exactly 4mins/km. Roget and Tori did what they could at that pace. Maria did 3 x 1000m. Janene on her own did similar to other weeks in the 4:10-4:15 range. Heidze did 1600m, 1200m, 800m, 400m and looking very comfortable in doing so. Kathy some strides. Helen this morning 4 x 7 minutes.
