Stromlo XC Intervals Steve 3 x 1500m ; 3 x 1000m

This morning sessions done at Stromlo XC circuit. Weather was cool with light winds. Surface is slowing up with the rain greening up the grass with lush growth. I can barely feel the feet hit the ground now.

Steve ran 3 x 1500m efforts. Splits: 5:06,5:07,5:09. That's Steve's best set of this type.

Gabe, Roger and I ran 3 x 1000m efforts, my first set for a few days due to virus. Splits: 3:13,3:12,3:11. Gabe was in the 4:30s.

This will be my 6th week at an average of 120km. My training base is now largely repaired after WMA in Malaga. Now to find some session and racing form. On track Thursday is a handicap 1500m and One Hour run. Not sure what I will run.

This week didn't start well with some lap timing marshals giving me an extra 3-4 laps to complete with no fault of my own before I could start to get back on terms in the 10000m event. As things panned out I suffered like most others in the heat and chasing back on was impossible for me once the hamstring muscles started saying No!! The 1000m result wasn't so bad, finishing 3rd behind the front running three in just over 42 minutes. I have just been going through the motions since the 1000m, cheering on as best I can from the sidelines. When I get back home in coming days I will have a short break and start again ant build up into running from again as soon as the hamstrings can repair themselves. Today was mostly walking on the lush course as Stromlo xc circuits. If by chance I can do a little more than that I will try. Otherwise I look forward to making the long trip home.
