Not Parkrun Road Trip

My plans for a fast Parkrun on Saturday cancelled with organisers pulling the event which coincides with a running festival at the same venue. After a little deliberation I'm going through with it anyway by running a Not Parkrun on the course, possibly on Thursday, if not on Friday or both days. Today I hit 140km for the week, something I haven't done since February 2021 and routinely do building up to a major event and taper. I know I am susceptible to illness or injury training at this volume for long. I'll back off the volume a little for a week or so and then attempt to run some fast times before New Year.(Photo: February 2021)

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.
