Steve 4 x 600m XC efforts

This morning Steve at Stromlo ran 4 x 600m XC efforts with 600m jog recovery. Splits: 1:51,1:51,1:50,1:49. That's a 3 second average improvement on a month ago and over 1 second a fortnight ago. Weather would have been cool with light winds. It's a nice day out with some smoke coming from recent back burning now the fire season has gone.

I have scheduled a 5-10km run today and 5km tomorrow. It's my first full taper since World Masters Games in New Zealand in April 2017. I should have some good form for a week or two before I start my next training block in the lead up to World Masters Athletics Championships in Malaga September 2018.

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.
