Over the mountain

Haven't run over the mountain and back for a while but did so this morning. 18km in 85 minutes, a similar distance yesterday. Have dropped 1.5kg in weight in the last week, mostly through not eating two sushi rolls for lunch. I miss them habitually, I think the shop assistants will miss my punctuality and repeat trade but it must be done. Only have 1kg to go to be at race weight.

Weather for Thursday evening in Melbourne now forecast to be a whole lot better. Starting to gaze beyond the Victorian 5000m Championships and beyond. Looked at the track programs for December. I may get two more cracks at a fast 5000m, only one at a fast 1500m before years end.

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.
