Training Update ; Australian Masters Athletics Championships Adelaide, April 18-21, 2025

Just enough time has passed for me to commit again to the next Australian Masters Athletics Championships to be held in Adelaide South Australia, April 18-21 2025. For me it will be a driving road trip which I last did during COVID, taking my dog for the Journey. We had a great time running on the pet friendly beaches. I've also done a reccy of most Parkrun events in the region. I am injury free and motivated. With two Parkrun events run since the last AMA Championships I know my head is in the right place already. Training Period April to June 2024: Strength Hills, Power Hills, training volume increasing from the current 76km/week back to my normal training level of 120km/week. I will need to run a Half Marathon in 2024 also.

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.
