Running - Trail 1:30:01 [3] 16.63 km (5:25 / km) +89m 5:16 / km
shoes: 2015 Kinvaras

Real round the bay with a bit extra. Hip a little sore towards then end.
Pretty nice day for it, only had 2 layers on top and was actually getting a little warm when in then sun. Exposed trails a little slippy too, a few moments of ermnersha issues.
Ran into Turbo and LadyTurbo skiing at Churchill in the beginning.

CF 39:00 intensity: (30:00 @2) + (9:00 @4)

Buy In: max burpees in 2 mins (40)
Lift: 5x5 rep front squat: 165lbs
WOD: 15.1 Open
AMRAP in 9 mins: 15 toes 2 bar, 10 x deadlift, 5 x snatches (115lbs)

So I'm doing the open. It's 5 weeks of a set WOD where you post your scores online that's done across the continent. I'm kind of apathetic about it, but a lot of people are hyped by it so gave in to Inershiua.
Today was a dry run to see if I could handle the Rx workout or drop to scaled. Kinda dicey I'm at a point where scaled would be pretty easy, but Rx will be rough.

9 AM

CF 48:05 intensity: (40:00 @2) + (8:05 @5)

5x5 225lb deadlift
WOD: Partners 3x:
A: 10 x strict pull up, 15 x sit up, 20 x jump squats
B: Wall sit

You do B while partner does A and swap. If you break the wall sit your partner has to stop doing the reps. Pretty tough on the quads after all the snow running over the weekend.

Orienteering 59:02 [3] 6.82 km (8:39 / km) +84m 8:09 / km
shoes: 2013 Orocs

UKR O-Cup somewhere near Newmarket. The map wasn't great, but at least the mapping was consistent - just a lot of subtleties missing in the contours. I thought the course was really well set.
Started off leading the pack with Duca and a bunch of juniors on my tail, which is kinda encouraging - the last o-cup race I did I was somewhere in 10-15th place out of the blocks.
Stayed in the lead with Nick until he peeled off in the first box with his old man handicap and then I immediately over ran the next CP and a bunch of people got in front :/
Lost a little intensity then, but tried to stay solid. Ended up with DD_11 around 5 onwards and though I said 'great mind think alike' when we picked the same route to #6, I was internally thinking 'If I'm picking the same route as DD_11 in an O-Cup, something is going very wrong' :)
It did eventually go wrong again, I tried to be clever in the 2nd box and pick up 'd', which is the obvious drop, cause if I was with anyone at the end of the box, I could skip 'g' and overtake them, but I got totally twilight zoned, missed 'd' totally and ended up at the same trail junction as an equally confused Bash...
Good fun, I think some decent progression in running speed was encouraging and always good to see Adventure peeps
