BBQ Stakes 6.1km XC 23:09 as 7 x 3 minute intervals, 30 seconds jog ; Steve 3 x 2000m

Weather awful as a cold front passes through dumping snow on surrounding hills, very strong winds, no sun. At BBQ Stakes hilly 6km XC run a set done in full body cover as 7 x 3 minute efforts with 30 seconds jog recovery. My total time 23:09, Helen same set in 31 minutes with a warm up during start of run.

At Stromlo XC circuit in similar awful conditions Steve ran 3 x 2000m efforts in 7:33, 7:36 and 7:48.

An afternoon recovery run for me, long recovery run on Thursday, Friday and Saturday shorter easy runs to freshen up for City2Surf 14km road race on Sunday.
