Australian Masters Athletics Championships Entry Update ; Recovery Run 17km

Yesterday I made entry in the Australian Masters Athletics Championships to be held in Brisbane commencing April 1st. I entered in the same events I normally do. 5000m track, 8000m XC, 1500m track, 10000m track. My club Championships will be held in coming weeks in all of those events except the cross country. 1500m next Thursday 10th February, 10000m 3rd March, 5000m 24th March. I'm also likely to race in a One Mile 17th February and 800m 10th March. Today it is still windy, cold and sunny...a blast from the south. I ran in the forest out of the wind for 17km. Saturday Parkrun. Photos: AMA Championship Races 2009-2019 inclusive + 1 ACT Championship (2008).

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.
