Australian Masters Athletics Championships Perth April 2018

Entries opened today for the Australian Masters Athletics Championships Perth in April 2018. I am entered along with two other people already. I booked flights and a hotel months ago.

I begin my Direct Preparation training block for the event when I return for Oceania Masters Athletics Championships in New Zealand next week. Events entered include 10000m track, 1500m, 5000m and 8000m XC, all on consecutive days.

I'm treating Oceania Masters as a training week with little taper. Australian Masters Athletics Championships is my first big event for the year. I'll be training as if it were the World Masters Athletics and with a full 10 day taper and all the sessions. Events will be held on the same XC course and main stadium used in World Masters Athletics Championships 2016 in Perth.

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.
