warmup

Yeah, so, I skipped #6. No excuse really, didn't know it even happened until download. Still not even sure if I really did skip it, but we'll trust the e-punch. I believe the cause of it was that 5, 6, and 7 were close to a straight line so 6 was somewhat easily over looked, further, between 5 and 6, the back side of the course crossed the line to 6, making that area of the map congested with lines. Too bad, had a good run otherwise with a close race with some dude from Germany. First time ever to make that type of mistake, saw a French dude in the relay at the 2008 WOC mispunch, don't know exactly what he did, I was watching it on TV in Sweden. He was in the lead, then he was just trotting along after he figured out his mistake. Well, still hate the Fox Run map, wish I had time to update some of the many RMOC maps in need of updating. For what its worth, results:

Tired and sore, night run around Glenmere pk.

warmupcooldown

Running club. Temps in the upper 50s, a few rain drops. Good XC weather, too bad I was stuck on a track. 3, 5, 3, 5, 3, 3 min. Ran with lead group and pace was brisk to say the least. Not much pace difference between the 3's and the 5's, except the last one. Pace was about 5:35 or less for the 5's, 5:25 or so for the 3's, last one was something like 5:15 or less pace. Calves felt it the worst, particularly the right one.

20th to Funplex, all of Sheep Draw trail (may have found some 'burbs with good roller ski potential), then to Red Barn, and back on 4th to 23rd. It was a bit darker than what I would have liked, but started a little bit late as I wanted to watch Watson crush the Micronians for a bit.
