Parkrun Jindabyne 18:57 2nd ; Ultra Trail Festival by UTMB

Warm, sunny 18 degrees at Parkrun Jindabyne, 2nd in 18:57. It was a record field for Parkrun Jindabyne, largely due to the Ultra Trail Festival competitors who were backing up from events earlier in the week. My run Splits:(500m)1:48,1:48,1:51,1:50,1:53,1:53,1:53,2:00,1:52,1:51. I did find my threshold in the first kilometre. Splits after that were affected by runners heading opposite direction on an out and back course twice. My result 22 seconds slower than my 2019 result, an age graded improvement on my 2019 result. The run did shake out my cobwebs and set me up for a solid 2024 when I commence structured training and run on my preferred Parkrun Course. Images from Friday afternoon and this morning.

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.
