First Light Beach Tempo Run 65 Minutes : Training Update Strength Hills

Pre-Dawn 65 minute Tempo run at Surf Beach. Perfect weather for running, cool, no wind, big full moon with the sun about to rise, hard packed sand. With the tide coming in I only had 65 minutes to get the run done on the beach. Recovery run on the golf course, 17km for the day. Training update: After 7 weeks of consistent high volume training I added a hill session into the daily mix last week. The climb at 2km in length goes to the highest point in town, all on a traffic free path. After a warm up I've been running at maximum threshold, recovery down to the boathouse cafe and return home. This session is always done in the afternoon on most days.

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.
