Rain on the way, I was up early enough to avoid it and run a solid session. The 12km set all on undulating bike path including 5km in 17:27 mid-run. Splits(500m) 1:44,1:42,1:43,1:46,1:46,1:53,1:47,1:45,1:37,1:46.
Great weather for running cross country, cool, cloudy, light winds on a super tough course, 2nd M60 in 31 minutes, my best run of the Championships. Nothing to do now but start heading north and back home after picking up a border collie pup on the way.
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.
