Not Parkrun Huskisson 5km 17:11 : Steve 1500m Track 2nd 4:48

Morning drive a couple of hours north to Huskisson for a solo Not Parkrun 5km effort in 17:11. Splits(500m)1:42,1:44,1:43,1:44,1:39,1:43,1:43,1:43,1:42,1:42. Weather sunny, warm, some wind. I ran a full 5km over the course prior to the start. The time equal to my fastest two over the Batemans Bay course and at Australian Masters Athletics Championships in April on track. Very even splits, flatish course, people, bikes, wind and dogs slight variations. All that done with 140km in my legs last 7 days. Happy:-) Now off for a slow warm down and sight seeing. Next effort may be a real Parkrun on Saturday. I'll have to drive south this time. This evening at track Steve ran a close 2nd to Grant at 1500m in 4:48(8 seconds quicker than his last outing).

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.
