Note
Hmm, ok, have to admit, ankle kinda-sorta swole up after Corn Maze-O. =( The footing was pretty good, but did have two light tweaks, guess those must have done it, since normal running ~8 mi seems ok? So think I have to keep being super-alert about footing, and thus probably not properly o-ing for a bit yet... boo!

Morningski with Alex! Nice to get out, super-nice to have company, but oh my gosh is specific strength going to have to be worked on! We just did 2 x our normal set of exercises, normally we do 5, will have to work on up to that. Hopefully I can find a hill in Toledo...

Woo, o-folks from all directions descend upon Sunderland! =) Awesome to see everyone, this was a scooted-in little warm-up, latter half accompanied by Ian.

CMOUSA Classic Champs @ Mike's Maze, Sunderland, MA
Fantastic times. Lovely green corn, no ambiguity from little kids or hurricanes knocking corn down, and a neat maze, if I think a little less tricky than last year?
Anyways, this was my best race, just steady which put me in 2nd, but oodles behind superstar corn-mazer Ian. We need a face-off between him and Greg...

Hm, so I think Giacomo and Giovanni learned how to corn-maze-o in the first edition and were out there threatening Ian on this one, I lost a good lot of time confused to 4, going the left route. Right route got some simpler points!

First ever? Maybe? But bah! I totally let partner George down by skipping the spectator control. Too bad, but I was having a good run, so after a smidge of debate after I realized what I'd done, I headed out back for another second loop after punching #5. So no DQ, but jeez Ali!

Good noon run with Glenn, none of the usual guys joined in. A loop including Teawaddle Hill, which was really pretty. Chat, chat, chattering to Glenn the whole time, about ticks, my upcoming move, fore vs. heal vs. midfoot striking.

Mellow day at the gym, just an easy base workout on ellitpical, bike, elliptical, floater. Watching some murder-detective show for the first hour... unhelpfully maps are now packed!

Abs + back, waiting for dinner to reheat - microwave is also now gone!
And then spent the rest of the evening reading The Hunger Games book 3, oh my gosh was it hard to put down! I think it took me 5.5h to read in total, all in one day. And yes, I do have better things to be doing, eep!

Just a mini little b-day double-pole, still easing into it to strengthen the wrists nice n' slowly... laughed out loud when a car full of teenage guys drove up and purposefully slowed down, blasting Eye of the Tiger. Oh yeah =)
My right quad has been pretty sore, not really recovering since the 10k, so and easy day or two now, make sure it really recovers.

Easy-peasy morning jog with Ian after joining in on Good-bye Neil festivities last eve late-ish. It was very, very tempting to try to go orienteering, Blue Mtn is just soooo gorgeous and fun to orienteer in!! But I had one wee tweeky crunch on an uphill when I lost focus for a sec, so definitely a sign ankle isn't ready to orienteer. But if I keep totally focused, can easy trail run at the very least!

Event: Bye bye Peekskill
3 PM
Running 1:10:14 7.96 mi (8:49 / mi) +225m 8:07 / mi
ahr:143 max:166
Well, moving takes time, so Ian and I didn't get to participate in Neil's Bye, Bye Peekskill training festivities, boo! Instead just in time to sneak in a road run at home (Poughkeepsie) before birthday dinner with fam. We did a combo of the standard 5 mile loop + Chirstmas loop which ended up being nearly 8 miles. Both ankle and toe seemed fine with this, although maybe just maybe I could feel the tendons on the inside of the ankle towards the very end... will keep tabs on that!
