Stromlo XC Intervals 4 X 800m, 200m recovery

Pre-dawn set with Steve at Stromlo XC circuits of 4 X 800m, 200m recovery. Weather warm and humid, light breeze, no animals on the grass. We put together another top set. Splits through 500m 1:38,1:34,1:34,1:33. Closing 300m on the final effort 50 seconds, the quickest I have run this summer for the set. Next effort on Thursday evening, a low key 1500m flush out the legs run. Weather will be warm to hot with a possibility of rain or thunderstorms, it's always windy at 6pm start. All the best conditions are late in the evening. I'll restrict myself to that time in future weeks with longer races over 3000m to 10000m.

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.
