Taper Session for Steve

2000m 6:35 for Steve, another sharp effort and showing signs he is in absolute top shape, well in contention for a medal or two. Big step up for Steve is his strength and endurance in the back half of the race. He has much more pure power than me. I hope he gets a chance to show it on the weekend.

Not much from me. 12km today in the bush trails, down to 100km last 7 days, the first time that little since January 8. All is good.

Keith witnessed a tussle between a sports gel and a leather jacket...the jacket came off second best. Not sure whether our stomach can cope long term, leather cannot cope short term.

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.
