WEEK 1 - Fun in the Sun at Falls

Sam and I spent a few days up at Falls Creek over the New Year. During the summer months Falls is transformed from it's usual winter wonderland into a training hub for athletes. There were about 100 runners training when we were up there which was a pretty crazy sight!



As we weren't up there for too long I tried to keep the training fairly light since there wasn't enough time to get used to the altitude. I did a few rides, including the bike course of the Supersprint Falls Creek Long Course Champs (on in Feb), and some awesome runs along the aqueduct trails. The views from up the top of the mountain are amazing...I could run forever up there!!
We will be heading up there again in a few weeks for the Long Course race...cannot wait! Woo.
