Secret Blog for Killing Track and Parkrun PBs

A 5km morning run before  heading South on a Road trip to prepare for Parkrun tomorrow morning. Munchkin the Border Collie and I ran a solid 7.5 km on the beach at low tide. Weather warm, full sun, no wind. Showers are predicted for this afternoon and evening.

Morning Runs from home including a 15km Hill Loop. In the afternoon a set of 5 x 1km Intervals. Weather sunny, no wind. Sessions for the remainder of the week will include short Intervals.

No rain or wind since yesterday afternoon, perfect running weather this morning with all the weather pushed out to sea although Surf swell is still rough and unsafe. I ran a fast paced 13km Hill Loop on my usual circuit pushing hard on all the hills. I ran an easy 4km run with the dog as recovery including a coffee stop at the boathouse cafe . Focus for the remainder of the week will be preparation for Parkrun on Saturday and the Australian Masters Athletics 10km Road Championships in Canberra on the following Weekend.

More rain overnight with strong, cold winds from the south, huge surf again. I ran before dawn again before retreating inside back at home to escape the rain and wind. Similar conditions in the morning but without the rain and some welcome sunshine. It looks like the weather system has moved out to sea and should be better weather by Wednesday when I can resume structured training. 16km for the morning. Before lunch a 4km run in sheltered forest close to home, 20km for the day. Final Australian Masters Athletics Championships Final Entrants List has been posted. With the Australian Masters 10km road Championships just a week before the Australian Masters 10000m Track Race I opted out of entering the 10km track event. My full Track program will include the 1500m and 5000m with the 8km Cross country as my final event of the Championships.
