TNT. Eric and Tom there. I ran with Tom and we were generally pretty easy. I tried to work the one big hill and pushed pretty hard the last 20. Cooled down around the school and slowed down with Eric.

9 PM

Run 30:00 [2]
shoes: 9 2007 Adidas

After the great seafood buffet at the RCOP, I went to the gym. And survived, but barely.

Weight training 30:00 [3]

Weights and circuits. Cleans were OK today.

8 PM

Run 1:00:00 intensity: (40:00 @2) + (15:00 @3) + (5:00 @4)
shoes: Salomon SpeedCross 2 2009

TNT.

Got there late, and tried to redeem myself by keeping it firm. Did a half-Indian in 26:30, which I believe is 1 minute faster than before. Rolling along.

Then down Forbidden until the first steepish decline, and back. Did a bit of running around Sandy's to round out the hour.

Note

62 * 1024 * 8 * 10 * 1 / 1000000 ~= 5 Mbit/s?

That is 3G. Not great resolution, but maybe this could work.

I wish I was motivated to expend my energies towards things with more commercial relevance than orienteering, but I really have so little interest in that...

Note

$2,000-$4,000. Raising the bar: priceless.

Note



Would it be inappropriate to have an orienteering event, or at least a map, sponsored by these guys ?
9 PM

Run 35:00 intensity: (28:00 @2) + (5:00 @3) + (2:00 @4)
shoes: Salomon SpeedCross 2 2009

Easy run over to Penncrest. Mostly around the fields, but then a few brisk laps (one at 80) around the track. And back.

12 PM

Run warm up/down 10:00 [2]
shoes: Spring 2009 Integrators

"Warm-up"--the most superfluous warm-up ever, maybe?

Orienteering race 18:19 intensity: (13:19 @4) + (5:00 @5) ***
shoes: Spring 2009 Integrators

DVOA Green Lane stage 1.

Like a sprint, and bloody hot. Decent run, but a little rough during the middle.

Orienteering race 33:59 [4]
shoes: Spring 2009 Integrators

DVOA Green Lane stage 2.

The long pause and change in scale got me on the first leg. Lost maybe 1.5 minutes there. Also, an odd sensation--I felt like I was naked on the first leg. A combination of tights and the airflow generated by running in that oppressive heat...

Started dragging a little at the end, but Vadim didn't.

Event: O-Ringen Örebro 2010
 

Map hike 3:00:00 [1]
shoes: Salomon SpeedCross 2 2009

Egypt Mills and then Loch Lomond.

A little longer than recorded time, but we were going quite slowly. I did a little jogging here and there.

Egypt Mills pretty much as expected, Loch Lomond a little worse.

But, it is also a little unfair--I always envisioned LL as a great relay venue; now it is being asked to support a middle.

Still, I think it is like cooking. I gave Harvey the truffle oil, chanterelles, and jamón ibérico. I kept the Spam for myself. But, if I want to earn my third star, I need to make a masterpiece out of challenging ingredients. I'm sure I can do it. Harvey can just connect the dots.

Run 1:00:00 intensity: (5:00 @1) + (15:00 @2) + (35:00 @3) + (5:00 @4)

Normal RCOP workout. But, it felt tough today.

Weight training 25:00 [3]

Normal RCOP weights, but cut short after 25. A little burning in the lower neck caused me to abbreviate the squats. But curls and lunges were OK, so I almost got the same benefit.

Wasted by the end of this.

Note

An end of an era:

Run 50:00 intensity: (20:00 @1) + (25:00 @2) + (5:00 @4)
shoes: Salomon SpeedCross 2 2009

Ran with Kolya over to Penncrest. I have no idea about the school's educational standards, but they ought to be an athletic powerhouse. They have so many athletic fields, it is ridiculous. But, I'm not really complaining. Where do their tax revenues come from? I have to familiarize myself with the school district. I didn't think it was especially affluent.

I did some fast-ish laps on the track, along with some slow running with Kolya.

Afterwards, Nifty Fifty.

Easy, but late (9PM+) run over to Penncrest.

If you are at work until 9PM+, it is hard to train.

6 PM

Run 45:00 [2]

Out to see the geese--this time Dasha ran--and on the way back, I went to Shaws.

Wednesday Jul 7, 2010 #

Run 1:10:00 [2]
shoes: Saucony Progrid Ride 11/9/2009

Basically to the BU Bridge, while Dasha was walking. I would go out ahead and circle back. Stopped twice: for Brendan and a "friend" (very curious) and to convene with the geese. That time is excluded.

Tuesday Jul 6, 2010 #

shoes: Saucony Progrid Ride 11/9/2009

Monday Jul 5, 2010 #

Hike 1:00:00 [1]

Lon gwalk with Dasha to Leverett Pond. No aerobic benefit but maybe some training value? Abridged time.
