Parkrun 5km Burley Griffin 17:21 2nd

Xmas edition of Burley Griffin Parkrun this morning. Weather warm, sunny, no wind. That's about as good as it will get this week with at least 7 days in the mid to high 30s. There were plenty of folk out there dress in festive attire.

I ran this course two Christmas ago in 16:47 with four good runners around me. Today I had to make my own pace until young Travis came past with 1500m to go. I was good for 3km.

Next week on New Years day I'll run another event. It will be held on a loop course rather than out and back as it was today. I should be in better form but it may be very hot.

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.
