June Already


This year has gone so so quick. It feels like only yesterday that I had sun burnt feet after a day at the beach!!!

The best part about it is that track season is not that far away. Pretty soon the tights and gloves will be in the bottom of a draw somewhere. Cant wait.

10 x 1min w/ 1min recovery tonight. We do them along a bike path were we have measured out a 400m stretch and we run up and back each time seeing how close we can get to 400m. Tonight was a lot closer than normal. We were covering about 360 - 370m. Not too shabby off a minute recovery.

As usual we run the full 400 for the last one and see how quick we can do it. Tonight I ran 64s. Moving nicely thank you!!!!

Jack and Robbie are in Melbourne until Saturday so I guess I'm fending for myself for a day or three. On the menu is pasta and more pasta. Exciting hey?

Long runs are starting to feel comfortable again and are increasing. 1 hr 45m last Sunday. I have also started running from home to our usual meeting spot which takes about 20 minutes. Why? Because then when I run home at the end its ALL UPHILL. 30 minutes worth in fact.

Hopefully come August when the State XC Champs are on there will be a pay off for all this effort!! Time will tell.

Over and out.

I look forward to watching your race at the National XC, yep a Vic supporting a Tassie runner....

Let me know if you need any support for the weekend, I'm sure many Wes Aths guys will be more than happy to help out a former Club mate.

Stu, Im not sure I can call myself a Tassie runner given I havent registered over here yet!! Will have to in order to run Nats tho.
Some support would be great, Im sure a lot of "mainlanders" dont even know Tassie exists!!!!!!!!!
Cheers Dude

Adrian - it sounds like you're flying! Keep working hard and those times are going to drop like the Melbourne Footy Club. Don't come racing for us again (regardless of what Stu says), I don't want my arse handed to me on a platter.

So, as an adopted Tasweigan, will there be two mug heads to look out for?
