Training Log Archive: Sandy

QOC event at Greenbelt, Red course. Disliked 1-2-3-4, but the rest of the course was pretty good. 1-2-3 were trail runs and I couldn't run. 3-4 was probably a lot faster if you took the trails out to the road and then blasted down the road - but it was twice as far and I had had enough of trails so plowed through the woods which were not so nice. Made a 5 minute mistake at 6 which was annoying - I was in the right spot and didn't see the control/feature (control down in a pit in the midst of downed trees) - and was not confident enough to just keep looking so went back out to the trail and ran up and down the trail trying to figure out where else I could be only to go back to the same spot and this time just spot the epunch unit sticking out over the lip of the pit. Rats! But the rest of the course was through some really nice woods and I enjoyed myself immensely.

Some yoga to stretch.

Red - Splits

Late afternoon hike in the Wissahickon. Glad I got out but too much on mind and not able to really enjoy it.

TNT - track workout. Mixed things up, walking and jogging and trying to run the last 100m hard every other lap and then every lap. Alternated hard/easy laps where easy meant I could walk the curves. Did the hard ones in 2:15-2:30 and the easy ones in 3:25-3:40 for a total of 14 laps. Plus the walk over to and back from the track. Happy with the results.

Core DVD minus the last series of the stuff on your stomach.

TNT - with Sandy on the drive. Set my watch timer and did 40 seconds running, 40 seconds walking for two miles. Did the two miles in 23 minutes which is pretty reasonable given that we were walking for half the time.

Fabulous mushroom soup afterwards by Karl.
