Mountain Threshold Run 13km ; Stromlo XC Intervals 4 x 200m, 2 x 300m : Steve 3000m 10:24

Autumn like weather this morning, cold with strong winds. Pre-dawn mountain run on forest trails of 13km running very hard on all the hills, cautious on the down hills. Later a set at Stromlo XC circuits of 4 x 200m, 2 x 300m efforts on a flat stretch of grass. Not a great day for running track with ACT Masters, very windy and cold. I had already decided to skip this week. Steve ran a handicap 3000m in 10:24. Splits: 3:26,3:30,3:28. Next hard effort on Saturday at Parkrun. I'll be aiming to break another Parkrun M60 age record, something I will be doing every second week or so.

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.
