Count Down to World Masters Cross Country Championship (short course) 2023

Entries closed, mixed relay teams sorted, less than 2 weeks until World Masters Cross Country Championship (short course) 2023 commence in Bathurst. Yesterday a 12 hour motor race took place on the hot mix circuit that encloses where our races will take place...it's all happening. Today a morning run with the dog down to the beach and back including 2 x 1km beach intervals plus 2 x 1.5km hill efforts to finish. I've lowered daily volume at 18km/day for this week and will maintain until I start driving to Bathurst just prior to the event. I won't fully taper until 1st March,10 days prior to my first race (10000m track) at Australian Masters Athletics Championships. 136km run this week.

Good to see you entered Bruce, taking on Mona I presume in the 60-64s? Should be exciting. Looking forward to the SBS coverage.

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.
