Stromlo XC Intervals 5 x 600m,400m recovery ; Steve Parkrun XC 5km 18:23

Rain off and on all week here. Track meet on Thursday was cancelled. At Stromlo the surfaced was cored and filled with sand. With all the rain very slow going right now. Will take a few days and a cut to speed up again.

Set at Stromlo included 5 x 600m intervals with 400m recovery. KT and Helen best of the girls, both sub 4:00/km. My last two efforts 1:48,1:46. We were recovering from a two party evening with Roger a 60th milestone.

Today an easy recovery run of 17km. 120km for the week.

Steve up north had another great Parkrun result with 18:23 for Steve and a big course PB.

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.
