Beach Intervals as 2 x 800m on glasshouse rocks Beach and 2 x 400m on the neighbouring Surf Beach, Racing Munchkin the Border Collie. Such a joy to be out there running fast on hard packed sand at low tide.
Heavy rain with Gale Force Winds Overnight and continuing today. This weather system should move off the coast in a day or two. Today just indoor training with the odd walk outside to get food at the local store. Tour de France commences this weekend in Lille. Even though I've run over most of the stages over previous years I still get excited every year when it comes around again. The weather today here is very similar to when I visited Lille in 2014 for the Grand depart, cold, miserable and still excited to be there. I got out there for a second Fast Paced run this afternoon on my HillLoop. No change in the weather and another 15km done for the day.
Early morning trip to Glasshouse Rocks Beaches for a set of 2 x 2.5km Beach Intervals Racing Munchkin the Border Collie. Weather warm and sunny on firm, fast sand at dead low tide. 2 x 500m single track hill efforts to complete the session. Back at home a 4km race pace effort. In the afternoon a long warm down.
All runs done from home this morning with no wind and clear skies. 20km for the morning. Interrupted by watching the Paris-Roubaix cycling on TV in the wee hours pre-Dawn.
