Long Run 20km : Training Cycle Update

Very windy today, not great running weather until this system moves away tonight. I tried running on the beach but gave up and found some shelter 200 metres inland. On Monday starts another week of training with a 5000m focus. Short intervals on Monday, long intervals or maximum threshold run on Wednesday or Thursday, Parkrun on Saturday. I'll be aiming again to take 10 seconds or so off my time run yesterday. I am 21 weeks into the training cycle leading up to Australian Masters Athletics Championships to be held in early March 2023. My training cycle for this years Championships was 47 weeks. I'm not even half way yet in this cycle. Race program for me is expected to be 10000m, 1500m, 5000m and 8000m XC over four days.

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.
