running warm up/down 43:18 [3] 4.9 mi (8:50 / mi)
shoes: O' Shoes

Ran around on the warmup map before, ran back from the finish after.

orienteering race 38:57 [4] ***
shoes: O' Shoes

Did a lot better reading ahead and working on my flow. I don't have my map, but the few mistakes I made were from not checking the directions of the trails I was crossing. It was fun because I got to run fast.

Event: BATONA 500
 

running warm up/down 22:00 [3] ** 2.44 mi (9:01 / mi)
shoes: O' Shoes

Ran around on the warmup area, also walked, to get more comfortable with the contours.

orienteering 1:04:36 [3]
shoes: O' Shoes

Some frustrating mistakes. I felt like my brain was turned off. I thought I was past the stage where I continued doing something stupid even though I knew I shouldn't be doing it.
I was happy with how I was used to the 2.5m contours, probably from Lithuania and some of the maps I have on Catching Features. I knew what I'd be able to recognize, and that helped me make realistic route choices.

running 32:11 [3] 3.58 mi (8:59 / mi)
shoes: New 767's

Nice easy run around a neighborhood by our hotel. It wasn't too nice running to the neighborhood, though, because there was no sidewalk.

swimming 36:03 [3]

Ben tried to fix my goggles, but they came off in the middle of my swimming! I fixed them and then tried to get used to kicking and moving my arms at the SAME time! It's pretty tiring. I alternated a 100 freestyle with a 25 breast stroke 3 or 4 times, and then I was really out of breath. I worked on my kicking at the end, since my goggles were hurting my eyes.

strength (knee exercises) 15:00 [1]

leg raises, ball squats, hamstring curls, then leg raises again.

running 32:23 [3] 3.67 mi (8:49 / mi)
shoes: New 767's

Ran to the Ruth Park golf course. It was so foggy, I thought I was in an episode of Scooby Doo! I did our 1-mile loop, then ran back home.
I'm trying to see how much running I can do while doing knee exercises, without getting sore.
