Parkrun Coombs 1st 17:29 ; Steve Lap of Lake 10 Mile Race 4th 64:44

Heavy rain overnight and lingering into the morning left a slippery mess to navigate wherever we were. Rain stopped just prior to 8am although still some wind. I cleared my own path of large rocks on the Coombs Parkrun course during the warm up. My run 1st in 17:29, very similar to last week. Today was a better run, again solo start to finish. Splits(500m): 1:39,1:46,1:45,1:41,1:44,(dead turn,1:47),1:46,1:40,(dead turn,1:47),1:45.

Steve was 4th in the annual lumpy Lake 10 Mile race. It's a good warm up for the Canberra Half Marathon on almost the same course in a few weeks. Splits(1km): 3:57,4:03,3:52,4:00,4:01,4:01,4:04,4:00,4:06,4:06,3:55,4:12,4:10,3:58,4:01,3:46,0:24.

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.
