Beach Time Trial 3km ; Retirement #2

A long day as I drove to Canberra and back to return work laptop as I commence Retirement#2. The drive was easy with not much traffic until hitting the coast again, sometimes heavy rain. I delayed the run until the deluge stopped for a bit. Milli the Border Collie and I raced each other for 3km on the beach (she always wins) with a warm up and warm down on forest trails. Tomorrow is Parkrun, I am marshal, no racing. I'll get a mock Parkrun in before the event. Rain is expected. From Monday I'll have plenty of time again for training after leaving 'work from home' behind me. I've already pulled the bike trainer out for the very wet days. On the good days I'll do some bike riding on paths by the coast as well as running...more whale spotting.

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.
