Without an exceptional big day, it was a very consistent week. Longest run was just 15.5 kms, biggest day was just 20.9 kms ( morning run & afternoon walk) with only run day with vertical above 1000 metres. That was just above with 1023 metres doing a double over Goat Hill.
Consistency & having a deep endurance base has kept me injury free. It has also kept the enthusiasm high although there have no races planned.
But, with winter ending in a month or so, may be longer in Tasmania, some spring time events are now inching into mind as the weather warms.
These may well be qualifying events for others in the future. You never know, but at least I could think about events without that worry.
In Hobart, it's been a very mild & reasonably dry winter. There have been a few bad weather days bringing snow, but whatever has fallen, has all but disappeared. What's left is now slippery ice. Not good to run on, just skate. Powder snow is much better so hope we get some more in August or that's another lost winter.
