Stromlo 5km XC

After yesterday was all about Steve and his 17:08 PB, today was to find out where Jane was at. Steve and I took Jane through to 3.2km at 4:00/km, Jane then was tasked with accelerating away from us and driving it all the way home. The result: 19:16 for Jane. Absolutely no doubting Jane can run in the 18s over 5000m in Hobart from that effort.

Most of the others out there this morning did 5000m, some did different things.

Of me: The sciatica issues from Thursday and Friday evening are improving. I was able to run freely and without pain this morning. Back on track I hope and very glad I didn't race last night. This evening a loosener. Tomorrow a long run incorporating a 4km XC handicap race at Stromlo again.

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.
