Long Beach Intervals 3 x 3km ; 2 x One Mile Hill Efforts ; Training Update ; Parkrun Resumes

Morning session of 3 x 3km on Glasshouse Rocks Beach chasing Munchkin the Border Collie. We also pushed it hard on the climb out of the Beach on single track. At home a long warm down. In the afternoon 2 x One Mile Hill Efforts, 19km for the day.
Training update: A couple of days ago I completed week 15 in this almost 12 month base training building block, 122km for that week. The last 3 weeks have been 122km,123km,125km. I will start preparation to resume Parkrun in the next fortnight or so. I'll have to get through some specific sessions before going to Parkrun in early August. I'll resume structured workouts after running the first Parkrun and finding out where I am at and what is missing. Key is to remain injury free. My main goal of Australian Masters Athletics Championships is not until 18th April 2025.

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.

Big Weather Event Brewing ; Indoor Training ; Australian Masters Athletics Championships Mixed XC race

Image
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.
