Stromlo XC Intervals 4 X 800m, 200m recovery

Morning set at Stromlo of 4 X 800m in 2:34 with 200m jog recovery. Weather cloudy, no wind, overnight few on already wet grass. An afternoon recovery run on Forest Trails to loosen up. ACT Masters have left the 3000m/5000m on the program for this Thursday after rain cancelled the previous week. Weather for Thursday is rain in the evening. I'll prepare for the event, if looking like another washout I will run a 5000m time trial.

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.
