Event: BAOC: Harvey Bear Ranch
Stretching 1:00 [3]
Morning nerve glides.
Orienteering 1:15:00 [3] *** 4.0 mi (18:45 / mi)
13c shoes: Saucony Trail
Abbreviated green course at Harvey Bear Ranch with Presto! Although it was great to be outside running around, this wasn't really a great race... I was still taking it slow to baby the knees, which instead of meaning I was super accurate, meant I was constantly surprised by how slowly things were coming up on me, leading to near constant confusion. However, the real disaster had nothing to do with navigation.
There was a lot of barbed wire on the course. One fence in particular was pretty low to the ground, so I jumped it. I guess Presto just saw that I had jumped over something, but didn't noticed what I had actually jumped over, so he just sort of arbitrarily jumped, figuring that if I jumped, he should jump. Unfortunately, since he didn't see what he was supposed to be jumping over, he ended up just smashing directly into the barbed wire, and ripped open his leg and chest. We aborted when I saw how much blood there was and headed off to find a vet where Presto got 6 staples.

Orienteering 1:04:59 [3] *** 10.0 km (6:30 / km)
10c shoes: Brooks Running 10
Oakland Greenways 10km with Presto! I got there a bit later than planned but managed to make the start. My knees still aren't perfect, but they were holding in there at a nice, comfortable jog. It probably helped that I spent like 10%-15% of my time stopped at lights :-). Presto was having a blast, probably because it was a perfect whippet temperature!
Stretching 5:00 [3]
Abbreviated normal stretching and evening nerve glides.
Flute 1:30 [3]

Morning nerve glides.
Running 51:55 [3] 5.3 mi (9:48 / mi)
shoes: Brooks Running 10
Running with Christy and Presto before lab! My knees are still feeling a bit beat up, so we took it nice and slow today, which meant we just barely slipped into group meeting. Presto was all excited to see Christy and go for a run!

Morning nerve glides.
Flute 1:00 [3]
KSO rehearsal! Best comment by a conductor since I moved out here: "That part is supposed to be out of tune. The floor just erupted and, you know, the organ is messed up." Indeed... :-)

Orienteering 54:18 [3] *** 5.1 mi (10:39 / mi)
8c
Street-O with Presto! I was attacked by one of those construction fences early on, crashed on the sidewalk, and took the rest of the run really...really...slowly. It was still fun, but in the future, I think I'll try to keep my skin attached during BAOC training!
