Event: Western States Endurance Run
Note
So far Karl seems to be doing okay. Hard to know though.
Note
And Karl is past the halfway point. He is a machine.
10 AM
map hiking 3:40:59 [3] 5.06 mi (43:40 / mi) +203m 38:50 / mi
Yay - figured out how to get the Garmin work again.
Stumble scouting. Some really nice woods up there and then some not so nice - rethinking course design.
Got tired pretty quickly; not sure why. It's a long drive up there so I would have liked to have put in a longer day, but I was just beat.
On the drive up, on US 209, just past the road up to PEEC, a tree fell on the road right in front of me. A car was in front of me and it fell in between. Pretty freaky. I saw it in plenty of time to stop but it was very weird to see it coming down and registering what I was seeing. It stopped traffic in both directions, but a dozen of us got out and moved the debris with one guy tying a rope to the main trunk and pivoting it to the side of the road with his truck. When I came by on my way home, all the stuff on the road way was long gone all that remained was the main trunk on the side of the road.

A couple quick hills this morning before heading into school. Still can not get my Garmin to talk to AP. Help!
Now that I have this working again, I decided to load the old workout.

Lots of yard work. I'm tired enough that I'm logging half an hour of training.

strength & stretching 10:00 [3]
Another couple hours pulling weeds and spreading mulch followed by 10 minutes of serious ab workout (randomabs.com) plus some stretching.
I don't mind the yard work since I listen to audiobooks so I'm somewhat entertained while I do it and I like how my yard looks when I've tamed some sections of it, but I wonder sometimes at the futility of it all.
On a separate note, had a nice discussion with a woman who I guess I am now supervising at work. (Really don't like that responsibility but that's another story.) I told her a little bit about orienteering and she seemed really excited about taking her family to a local event.
