Final day of Australian Masters athletics Championships and results 2026 secret blog for killing track and Parkrun PBs

Today was my final day of competition in this Australian Masters athletics Championships for me with 2nd place in the m60 8000m run to go along with my 3rd place in the m65 10000m run on track a week prior. From tomorrow I will have a period of active recovery before committing to anything more strenuous. And I will enjoy this period  and focus on hehab of my hamstrings which I damaged in the 10000m event on day 1 of these championships.

Good to see you Bruce. Sorry about the lap-scoring stuff-up in the 10,000. Hope you get over the hamstring issue soon.

This week didn't start well with some lap timing marshals giving me an extra 3-4 laps to complete with no fault of my own before I could start to get back on terms in the 10000m event. As things panned out I suffered like most others in the heat and chasing back on was impossible for me once the hamstring muscles started saying No!! The 1000m result wasn't so bad, finishing 3rd behind the front running three in just over 42 minutes. I have just been going through the motions since the 1000m, cheering on as best I can from the sidelines. When I get back home in coming days I will have a short break and start again ant build up into running from again as soon as the hamstrings can repair themselves. Today was mostly walking on the lush course as Stromlo xc circuits. If by chance I can do a little more than that I will try. Otherwise I look forward to making the long trip home.
